The first Photoshopped photo. BP's Houston command center.
Just read on americablog.com that BP has Photoshopped a press photo to make themselves look busier in their attempt to stop/control the Gulf oil spill.
Scott Dean, a spokesman for BP, said that there was nothing sinister in the photo alteration and provided the original unaltered version. He said that a photographer working for the company had inserted the three images in spots where the video screens were blank.
Sure, blame the photographer. I’m sure BP is offering him so much creative freedom he just thought it would be that much cooler if he used his weak Photoshop and creative skills (he doubled existing screens) to make the company look better. Right, BP, right… And what a great way to gain trust this is!
Some are even joking and saying the 3 people in the photo are actually paid models. haha
And just in case BP needs someone to (properly) fake photos and videos for them, I’m for hire. Not out of love for the company, of course. Out of love for their budgets.
