Real or Fake?

Photo manipulation has a huge negative effect on women because if they a picture of a "perfect Women" their gonna wanna look like that person but most times its just impossible and people cant look past that which doesn't help them because their so convinced.computer retouching really has gone to far.in the case of O.J. Simpson's picture on time magazine what the did was trying to say is he "evil"type of person who was wrongly judged. the manipulation was neither racist or insensitive because it could be taken so many different ways that everyone doesn't even see it as those.it is really no different from the Martha Stewart picture or Katie Couric the changed the way they look and it wasn't labeled as insensitive or anything else not that it was passed by with out notice but it wasn't as big of an issue and the other pictures but it really was a big deal. when it comes to the pictures of places is a big deal because people will look at the and get the wrong idea especially the pictures from the war people are so paranoid about that these days its just not a good idea to give them the manipulated images. the picture of the shark trying to bite at the helicopter probably isn't a picture to worry about because people could easily put all the factor of the picture together and figure out it was fake and also there and so many pictures like that floating around out there for example the picture of the huge house cat that obviously could never happen.
