falsa immagine


Definition from own experience or research:
La foto istantanea suggerisce che Sharon potrebbe essera stata uccisa da una esplosione del serbatoio come arma-ie un semplice fuoco organizzato da Hamas- e l'auto e' stata incendiata per nascondere l'evidenza di quello che e' realmente accaduto. E' questo un'altro grande scoop dei midia sulle false immagini con il riutilizzo ancora una volta della manipolazione dei contorni?
l'Editore Pubblico del Times ignora l'impatto della "falsa immagine," includendo una foto del Times di un uomo morto, che piu' tardi si vede camminare li intorno.

Falso fotomontaggio


Definition from Internet:
Fraudulent photography. News images that have been faked by various means, generally to promote an ideological agenda or to manipulate the emotions of the viewer. (Derived from a combination of the French term faux meaning “false,” and “-tography,” the second half of the word “photography.”)

Example sentence(s):
  • Piazza Armerina. Un falso fotomontaggio utilizzando il nostro giornale è girato ieri per la città. Alcuni ignoti, hanno incollando sul fondo di una pagina della cronaca di Enna, una falsa notizia contenente false e gratuite battute sul sindaco piazzese... - Internet
