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.

If the average reader of these magazines could do that then these publications would have flopped a long time ago. They survive on stupid.
