Rabbi Jason Miller reacts to the photoshopped removal of Hillary Clinton by a Hasidic newspaper:
To my mind, this act of censorship is actually a violation of the Jewish legal principle of g'neivat da'at (deceit). I wrote about this subject a year ago following the Flotilla debacle in Israeli waters outside Gaza when the Reuters news agency doctored photos that it published by removing weapons from individuals aboard the Mavi Marmara. The doctoring of photographs like this is referred to as "Fauxtograpphing." I'm curious to hear how Der Tzitung responds to its attempt to remove Hillary Clinton from this iconic photo and thereby from this historic event.
Update: A reader adds:
Someone should point out that the other woman in the photo, above Hillary's head and over Daley's shoulder, has also been removed.
