"Um guys, devil's advocate here, but I do a lot of photography.
You know what happens when you take a photo of a room with a TV or a computer in it? If you expose the room correctly, the screens will be completely washed out. If you expose the screen correctly, you rest of the room will be completely black. You can't do both unless you turn the brightness of the screen down all the way, and even then it's a stretch.
To compensate, you can take two photos, one with the properly exposed screen, and one with the properly exposed room, and merge them together (basically creating an HDR version).
If you're decent at photoshop, it's not a big deal. But if you suck at it, you get results like this photo. I'm just saying, it's possible that they legitimately were not trying to hide anything this time."

- flog 16y agoI really do not understand the uproar about this? Who gives a shit? What's the insinuation: that the whole thing is make believe and they're just sitting around twiddling their thumbs?
