Via the The New York Jewish week:
[A]n Ultra-Orthodox Hasidic Jewish newspaper, Der Tzitung, has determined that the photo of top U.S. leaders receiving an update on the mission against Osama bin Laden was too scandalous. What was so offensive about the image? U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in the photo and, based on good intel, the editor of Der Tzitung discovered that she is a woman. The Hasidic newspaper will not intentionally include any images of women in the paper because it could be considered sexually suggestive.
The publisher later apologized, but Failed Messiah was unimpressed:
An apology that really isn’t is based on a ‘Jewish law’ that really doesn’t exist.
And the photoshoppers at Der Tzitung were not alone. Failed Messiah reports here that De Voch, another Hasidic publication, also edited out the Secretary of State.
Their right to do so, of course, but really…
Actually, FWIW, I read one report that noted the White House states that use/reproduction of its photos is only allowed so long as the images are not in any way altered. Unlikely to do anything about it, but one might argue that in this case it wasn’t their right.
