Title says it all. I need this god dam photo.
I remember seeing a photo of a number of high profile American journalists recreating a photo, themselves posing as either dead bodies (in Iraq?) or hostages, in a big group photo.
It really stuck with me. I am sure something like this happened. I am sure someone on hexbear showed me it. I now can’t find it.
Help! I’ve tried everything I can think of. I even asked ChatGPT (which was useless, of course).
Many thanks
EDIT: I’m still searching. Can’t find a fucking thing. I feel like perhaps it wasnt even widely reported as scandalous at the time.
Are you thinking of the pictures at Abu Ghraib where the one female soldier was giving the thumbs up?
No, I’m aware of those too. I am somewhat sure it was a re-enactment of a famous war image by… if it wasn’t a team of journalists… it was at least someone else of that sort of class who definitely SHOULDN’T be re-enacting such a photo.
You could ask at at Reddit at subs like https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/. For some reason most of such subs are not filled with assholes and they’ve helped me time to time and stopped me from banging my head into my desk in frustration.
I’m IP banned from Reddit for some milquetoast Israel criticism. Legit, I stumbled upon r/Judaism or something, and as a Jewish person I pointed out a couple of times (with lib-esque civility language I might add) that anti-zionism is not the same as anti-Semitism. IP-banned. No other history of Reddit bans. Any new account I make gets banned within an hour.

Not that, either. I’m beginning to think it is a figment of my imagination.
