Well yes and no.  

How can a picture lie.  Would it be any different if they just posted a headline that says Trump administration mandates taking children away from their parents.  What if they just found a photo of the crying children within the containment camps and photograph them, oh I forgot, they cannot get access because they will not let them.  The photo is used to illustrate what the article is talking about.  Really, its not like this is new to any publication and has been used throughout history.  Now, if you can refute what the text within the article says, that's a whole different issue.  Trying to saying the photo is lying without actually reading the article is straw man politics.  Is the article wrong based on its portrayal of the facts concerning the issue.

You can edit a pic. 😹

The article itself can lie about the situation surrounding the pic and people can falsely associate it something with that's false or something it doesn't have anything to do with it.

Yeah, you can edit a pic.  Isn't that exactly what was done with this pic.  It put a crying child in a picture of Trump standing over that child looking down without a care.  The image is exactly the portray the mag wanted to present.  Now, the question is the story that goes with it.  Does it present facts, does it support it position with credible sources, is it an opinion piece supported by the mag or is it an actual researched article.  These are all the things as a reader, you should be doing for anything you read no matter where it comes from.  You either read the article and can dispute what it says or you basically just looking for something to dismiss the article so you do not have to make a decision on the contents.
