Is this picture real or has it been photoshoped?
Check out this link and look at the image on the laptop, I can't believe this is a real shot but if it's not why did Al Jazeera put a photoshoped image on their website.

3. Wait for all the pics on the page to load
There's a laptop sitting on the table amongst all the men in suits, with a pair of breasts prominantly displayed on it.

2. That's GOTTA be a photoshop....

20. Are you an expert?
I'm not trying to be a smartass- just wondering. From the little bit I know about the subject, it does not appear to be photoshopped.

10. What Picture Are You Talking About...
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 06:43 PM by jayfish
and what are you implying? Photoshoped images on aljazeera are less credible than say, photoshoped images of George Bush in front of our troops?

11. Wow, nice catch ClassicDem!
I'm thinking the entire laptop is a photoshop job, not just the screen.

The angles are abit off. Not to mention that it is HUGE! That looks like a 24-inch screen!

19. Notice how...
on the side that can't see the boobs the people look bored but on the side that can see them they are practically jumping out of their seat.

18. That's not the 'real' Al Jazeera
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 06:46 PM by htuttle
The English version of the www.aljazeera.net website is http://english.aljazeera.net/HomePage

The aljazeera.com one appeared during the runup to the Iraq invasion, and is just a website (not a television network).

http://www.aljazeera.com/about.asp

('real' About Aljazeera page)
