This is the reply I received from USA Today:

"Thank you for your e-mail of Oct. 26 regarding the photo of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that was published Oct. 19 at www.usatoday.com.

As you know, Rice’s eyes appeared unnaturally bright in the photo. I’d like to explain how this happened. USATODAY.com, like other news organizations, often adjusts photos for sharpness and brightness to optimize their appearance when published online. In this case, a newly hired USATODAY.com editor sharpened the photo and then brightened a portion of Rice's face. Those changes had the effect of inadvertently distorting the photo and failed to meet our editorial standards. The photo has been replaced with a properly adjusted copy and an editor's note has been published here: usatoday.com. The photo did not appear in the USA TODAY newspaper.

The editors of USATODAY.com will make every effort to ensure that something like this doesn’t happen again."
