"When is a photo of a crying girl not a photo of a crying girl? News photography in the age of truthiness"

Well it seems she was genuinely crying - just not about being hungry.  Powerful picture that does the job.  Rubbish newspaper though! ;)

At least it's not the godawful Daily Mail.

What a pointless blog post that was - using stock images has been the bread-and-butter of the press (and thousands of photographers) forever
