Concealing women May 10, 2011

Filed under: epistemology — Jender @ 9:19 am

If you got your news from Di Tzeitung, a Hasidic newspaper you’d think the Secretary of State had been kept out of the loop on killing Bin Laden.

A counterterrorism expert has also been photoshopped out. Why? Because the newspaper never publishes pictures of women, due to worries about sexual suggestiveness. (Thanks, Balk!)

    Pant suits do get me going.

    There was another woman airbrushed out of the picture, too. That’s why the one guy–right of centre, with arms folded in his lap–looks like he’s strangely withered.

    According to this source, they also airbrushed out a cat!
