Fox News has been accused of deliberately manipulating photographs so as to mislead its audience during its coverage of the continued Black Lives Matters protests.
The controversy was first picked up by the Seattle Times, noting that composited images were used as a part of the network’s reporting on the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), a part of Seattle that has ceded to protesters who are campaigning for justice following the death of George Floyd.
Two of the images that appeared on the Fox News homepage featured an equivalent man wielding an automatic and wearing a green mask. One of the images showed an Old Navy store sign despite there not being an Old Navy store inside the CHAZ. The image is three different photographs composited together.
