A New Word Enters the Language

Mary Catherine Ham is the first person I’ve seen use it, but I’m sure she won’t be the last.  “fauxtography”. (copy this into your browser address bar if the link doesn’t work: http://www.townhall.com/blog/#ccb99f35-9062-4908-a973-e0c3811c8c4b).

It is a perfect description of the kinds of things the blogosphere has been catching the MSM doing.  I offer the following definition:

Fauxtography – The practice of using altered, cropped or otherwise misleading photographs to create a false impression equal to a lie that is a thousand words long.

I also recommend the coining of another new word – Reuterized!
