A fake image of Tusk on the cover of a Polish magazine

TuskWsieci@
the hijacked photo

(B2) The image fits like a glove with the title chosen by W Sieci to illustrate Donald Tusk's photo: " He won't come back. He chose the luxury of the (European) Union ". But apparently it's more of a photomontage, not worthy of journalism.

a blogger Josef Moneta (predestined name!) discovered the pot of roses by detecting a photo similar at Getty. A man is looking out the window, in a business jet, with a glass of champagne in his right hand, with the cockpit in the background. With one difference: this one is bearded, where the other photo shows the President of the European Council. It is also part of a series intended to illustrate business aviation as a place of luxury and relaxation (see another photo here ou here).

Or how to give use of rather dubious processes in the service of a personal attack rather in bad taste.
