If you read Flickr Censors Political Image Critical of President Obama by Thomas Hawk, you’ll see an interesting discussion centered around a Photoshop’d photograph of President Obama and Flickr’s decision to remove the image. Firas Alkhateeb, a 20-year-old college student in Illinois, is responsible for the image: he started with a cover photograph of Obama from Time magazine and used Photoshop to render Obama’s face as the Joker from Batman: The Dark Knight.
