Anytime I see someone taking a photo with a SLR camera and see how they are holding it, I immediately categorize them as someone who knows what they are doing versus someone who is a rookie.  As proof of this, check out the following group of photographers covering the testimony of Ambassador Yovanovitch at her recent Congressional hearing:

Note how all of the still photographers have their left hands cupped under the lens.  (One quick observation here – I wonder who or what the video dude in the white shirt was filming as he was the only one of the cameramen not focusing on the Ambassador.  )  

But when it comes to wondering about rigged election results how about some Congressional scrutiny of how Dave Matthews, despite receiving over a million fan votes, did not make the cut to be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (click here.)   Runner up vote getter Pat Benatar didn’t make it in either.  Notorious B.I.G however was selected.  That he was 13th on the fan vote list (click here)  tells me that the Rock and Roll selection committee really doesn’t give a shit what the fans think.  I challenge you to name two Biggie songs.  OK, how about one?  Top 5 fan votes show only the Doobies ultimately being voted in by the Committee:

Lots of great Doobie songs to choose from but this one is my favorite:
