Thanks Josh for finding this image on funnyjunk.com, which is designed to show the power of cropping in news photography and war reporting.

What are the meanings of the three photographs?

What elements of the image have been manipulated to create these meanings?

Consider this in the light of Baudrillard's second and third stages of simulacra where signs reiforce the notion of reality or signs mask the absence of reality.
