Civil War Generals, c. 1865 Generally regarded as the world's first commercially successful photojournalist, Matthew Brady was also one of the medium's most accomplished manipulators. In this group portrait of William Tecumseh Sherman and his top officers, he added one figure. For the record, the men are, standing, from left: Oliver Otis Howard, William Babcock Hazen, Jefferson Columbus Davis and Joseph Anthony Mower; seated, from left: John Alexander Logan, Sherman, Henry Warner Slocum and Francis P. Blair.
The Original Image: Brady added Blair at the far right. One of Sherman's corps commanders in the critical final offensive in Georgia, Blair led the XVII Corps, which protected the rear of Sherman's army during the Atlanta campaign. Like the other men in the photo, he played an important role in the March to the Sea, helping deliver one of the final blows to the Confederate cause.

That was a prank composite that lasted all of about 10 minutes on FR in the original posting. DUmmies seized upon it to discredit the genuine Corbis photo of the two of them seated by each other at an antiAmerican war rally.
Bill Gates' Corbis complained and does not permit FR to display the original image. Yet there exists a faked version of the genuine Kerry/Fonda image that has "added" GW Bush and Corbis does not go after those site.
There is no truth in the Pravda Media. Satire and parody are only protected if you are an uber socialist lib.

The L.A. Times ran that photo of the “menacing” soldier on its front page. A day or two later they had to disavow it, but I referenced it in every Letter to the Editor I wrote them.
