British Cover-Up

p.jpg

BBC: Some newspapers in Iran retouched a photograph of EU foreign policy chief Baroness Ashton to make her outfit less revealing, an Iranian website reports. Asriran.com showed Iranian press pictures of Lady Ashton next to Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, with her black top raised higher than in the original. They had held talks in Istanbul on Iran's controversial nuclear programme. Iranian papers often retouch images, a BBC Persian Service journalist says. Cyrus Amini, who worked in Iranian print media in 1998-2003, said the practice was "quite usual and understandable" because of the differences between Western and Iranian culture >>>

اعتراض کاترین اشتون به دست کاری پوشش او در رسانه های ایرانی

sobh


سحام نیوز: لاتز گرنر سخنگوی خانم کاترین اشتون ‏ نماینده عالی اتحادیه اروپا روز چهارشنبه ۲۶-۱-۲۰۱۱ در واکنش به فتوشاپ تصاویر خانم اشتون اعلام کرد مذاکرات ما با آقای جلیلی در تهران نبود تا رسانه های ایران تصاویر خانم اشتون را دست کاری کنند.
برخی از رسانه های ایرانی پس از مذاکره اشتون با سعید جلیلی دبیر شورای عالی امنیت ملی ‏ ایران برای بررسی پرونده هسته ای این کشور در استانبول هنگام چاپ تصویر خانم اشتون، یقه لباس وی را با فتوشاپ بالا کشیدند.
به گزارش روزنامه دیلی تلگراف بریتانیا سخنگوی اشتون در واکنش به عملکرد رسانه های ایران گفت : ” پوشش خانم اشتون شایسته بود . لباس ایشان نیم تنه نبود.”
گرنر ادامه داد: ” خیلی زنان در ایران حجاب کامل دارند اما مذاکرات ‏در سطح بین المللی و در یک کشور ثالث برگزار می شد و نه در ایران.” ‏
روزنامه دیلی تلگراف بریتانیا در این باره نوشته است که “خانم اشتون بسیار مراقب بود تا یادش باشد که نباید با سعید جلیلی دست بدهد و به همین منظور دستهایش را به پشت کمرش گره زده بود.”
این روزنامه افزود: ”اما خانم اشتون شاید فکر این مساله را هم نمی کرد که یقه لباس او با استانداردهای رسانه های ایران فاصله دارد و مطبوعات ایرانی برای انتشار تصویر وی مجبور خواهند شد تا یقه او را دستکاری کنند.”

Clarification

by Abarmard on

BBC has gotten this news from the Iranian media, meaning that even Iranian media criticised this act. Reading this page presents a different picture and BBC is not correct in reporting:

"Asriran.com showed Iranian press pictures of Lady Ashton next to Iran's
chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, with her black top raised higher
than in the original".

One reading this assumes that asr Iran, an Iranian media has " showed Iranian press pictures of Lady Ashton next to Iran's
chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, with her black top raised higher
than in the original"

No. asriran showed the image as it is in BBC page, telling us that some "other" papers had modified this image. Telling the story correctly makes a big difference. There were two reports about this incedent in asr Iran, and the latest is what BBC has copied. Here is the original and as you can see, both images are present.

What the ...

Of course one cannot blame the so-called press in Iran, since they don't want their license revoked for publishing lewd pictures.

I liked the caption below the picture:

"... eghtedare Iran..."

Yep!

It wasn't just this newspaper! Other newspapers did it too!

See Kaveh jaan's cartoon about this subject and click on the link he provided in the caption to his cartoon.  Different newspapers different cleavages!

Why not put her in a chador? That would be impressive.

by AlexInFlorida on

She looks like a chador would suit her.

Mousavi was right

The IRI  is worse than Goebbels.  This reminds me of Stalins photo manipulations with nikolai yezhov.  Curiously enough, the iranian government constantly uses the arabic word "Kafir" (to cover/conceal) to describe evil people.   I think they are spot on.

It reminds me of the scandal 2 years ago that IRI photoshopped their missile launch to make themselves look more powerful!
