Beauty Caused by Damage



Photoshop Hoax



Posted to the Internet in 2008 via social media, just after the announcement that Gov. Sarah Palin would be joining Sen. John McCain in a bid for the White House, this fake photo quickly went viral. A photoshop composite of Palin’s head atop a bikini-clad patriot was done well enough that for a short period of time the general public believed they were actually seeing Governor Palin in a bikini toting both a large gun and big bazookas so to speak. Of course the photo was debunked a short time later when someone (probably the original poster) lined up the original photo with the hoax.
