The "doctored" portion of the photograph was inconsequential.

Sounds like a Bill Klinton defense. It depends on what your definition of "lie" is.

It was "doctored" to make G. David Schine look like he was someone of importance who should be elevated from private to Lt. But, far from hobnobbing with anybody really important, he was shown to be just part of a large group shot when the actual photo was released.

As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. And, with a little "surgery" maybe 10,000.

"The photo had already been altered by the Army when they sent the copy to McCarthy staffer James Juliana for public display; the missing portion changed nothing; it clearly showed Stevens and Schine beaming at each other in the same good spirits."
Herman, Arthur; Joseph McCarthy: Reexamining the Life and Legacy of America's Most Hated Senator, p. 267

The camp commander was the third person in the photo and was inconsequential to the hearing.
