By implication, it can also mean we are persuaded to accept phoney material as genuine or consider a distorted context as the supposed truth. Traditionally censorship is associated with scheming politicians and government officials who plot to hide crucial facts from a gullible public. Years later, when historians and journalists pore over newly released official documents, we discover another version of history. This book investigates some of the most glaring examples of photographs which have been banned, doctored, manipulated or suppressed in order to dupe the viewer.
