Photo of Silicon Valley tech executives doctored to include women: report

A photo of Silicon Valley tech executives is taking heat after two women were photoshopped to be added to the group, BuzzFeed News reported Wednesday.

The photo of the "tech titans," was published by GQ last week and featured LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman and Dropbox CEO Drew Houston at a gathering in a small Italian village. The group was reportedly visiting luxury designer Brunello Cucinelli, BuzzFeed reported.

SunRun CEO Lynn Jurich and Peek.com CEO Ruzwana Bashir were doctored into the photo, according to BuzzFeed, which was posted to Cucinelli’s Instagram on May 30. GQ then used the photo as its main image for its June 4 story about the so-called “Solomeo Summit.”

BuzzFeed News reporter Ryan Mac, who reported the photo edit, noted that Jurich had “weird stuff” going on “with her leg, which isn’t aligned with the rest of her body.”

A Twitter user’s analysis of the photo later confirmed that the photo had been altered in Adobe Photoshop, BuzzFeed reported.

What's old is NEW again.

Emergence of de-facto American nomenklatura system, formation of new, electronic samizdat, thriving of neo zampolits, etc.

The pieces are coming together:

Plan accordingly.

They are a bunch of poofers. No wonder they hate conservatives lol. The European Nasi women actually will lodge a complaint anytime they see a board picture with no women. Actually seen it done.

I’m just an old fart, but I think that I could beat that entire team (even with the girls ‘shopped in) in a DODGEBALL match!

“A Twitter user’s analysis of the photo later confirmed that the photo had been altered in Adobe Photoshop”

Now that’s odd. Nobody believed the voluminous analysis by many experts and specialists of The Won’s birth certificate that proved it was a forgery. Yet here they take “A Twitter user’s” analysis at face value.

How peculiar is that? (jk)

I suspect the reason they didn’t want any women there was so that they could actually ENJOY THEMSELVES without having to worry about being ‘snowflaked’.

I have a friend who works in graphic design at a major university and she says most of her time is spent photo shopping minorities and women into pictures.
