This reminds me of an article in Le Monde (a French newspaper) where they discussed photos of Trump and B Johnson (UK prime minister at that time).
The newspaper does not like either of them but shown how the photo of Trump was manipulated: your could see him and the Japanese PM feeding fish in a temple. The Japanese PM was using two fingers to throw crumbles while Trump turned around his box shaking out the contents. Stupid illiterate Americans and what not.
They than explained that in the whole video of the event both were doing the same thing (two fingers and delicate crumbles, picture of the PM), the PM finished and shaked empty the box. Trump had a look and followed the lead. Picture of Trump.
I liked the fact that despite not liking Trump, they took this example of press manipulation.
The other one was a picture of Johnson putting his feet on a historical table in the Elysée palace when discussing with Macron. Stupid illiterate Brits and what not.
The full video showed that they were joking before the official meeting about the table, Macron said that the height is perfect and Johnson jokingly feigned to put his feet and bam! the photo.
When the Wikileaks came to light, it is also interesting to see which media were invited to work on them.
