The picture of the British soldiers liberated by Iran is everywhere.

But if you compare these two front pages, you will see what happens when design prevails over news.

The Daily Telegraph crops the photo and leaves out the soldiers that weren’t so happy…

While The Guardian gives you the full picture.

More picture.

More news.

This not photo editing.

It’s manipulation.

UPDATE: Ally Palmer sent me this cover of The Scotsman that, yes,m shows the manipulation better.
