История с фотографией. Цитата к ней:

The general killed the Viet Cong; I killed the general with my camera. Still photographs are the most powerful weapon in the world. People believe them, but photographs do lie, even without manipulation. They are only half-truths... What the photograph didn't say was, 'What would you do if you were the general at that time and place on that hot day, and you caught the so-called bad guy after he blew away one, two or three American soldiers? How do you know you wouldn't have pulled the trigger yourself?

И еще в википедии.

Другие записи в blandger тоже рекомендую.

Да я не то, чтобы умиляюсь, просто хорошо сказано, насчет photographs do lie. И это еще до эпохи фотошопа, заметим.
