Blatant Reality

By Jonathan Williams

Remember back in July when Iran was acting especially crazy and decided to test their missile capabilities? Well one of the missiles didn’t go off so the picture was Photoshopped to show four instead of the actual three missiles launching. Courtesy of LGF, here are the real and Photoshopped pictures of the missile launch:

 

 

Now here is the Photoshopped version with the similarities pointed out.

 

 

This now brings us to the current claim that Times Online used the Photoshopped version of this missile launch two months after it was discovered. Here is the picture:

 

 

Yep, that’s definitely the Photoshopped version, just cropped a little.

 

Here is more on the original Iranian Missile Photoshop Scandal.

 

Man, what is with online British newspapers making horrible picture choices?

 

UPDATE:

 

Now this is embarrassing. Times Online used this ‘fake’ photograph even though they ran a story back in July comparing the real and Photoshopped versions. Unbelievable.

 

UPDATE:

 

Well it looks like someone caught the mistake because now the picture has been removed from the article. Good job.
