Islamic tradition explicitly prohibits any depiction of Allah and the Prophet.

This article continues to keep the LIE going. The Quran does NOT prohibit pictures of Mohammad and in fact, there are many early pictures of Mohammad.

The concept that Islam prohibits depictions of Mohammad is a recent.... i.e not traditional view.

To me it doesn't even matter if the Quran does prohibit the depiction. The press is secular and shouldn't have to abide by religious dictates, anyway.
