Did CNN Just Get Trolled?

A doctored image of what is supposedly Osama bin Laden’s body after being killed by SEAL Team Awesome has been floating around the net. The photo isn’t real, of course, and CNN explains that it’s just a composite of an old photo published years ago.

They determined this with the help of a photographer they consulted with. The experts name is Kenna Lindsay and this is why they can tell it’s a fake.

“I have seen a great number of poorly Photoshopped images in my time as a photographer and I can tell by the pixels that it is a fake,” said Kenna Lindsay, a New York-based photographer who works with composite images.

I’m just going to leave this here.
