Somebody at this paper hates fruit

Ottawa_citizen_1The Ottawa Citizen runs a correction that shows the dangers of photo cropping (and junk food):

Due to an editing error, the photograph which accompanied a letter by Garry S. Fischl ("Students should snack less, exercise more," Nov. 26) left the incorrect impression about his views on nutritious snacks for his children in school.
The original photograph of Mr. Fischl and his sons showed him holding a bowl of fruit. In laying out the page, the fruit was cropped out of the picture, and only the bags of potato chips and candy being held by his sons were shown.
As a result of this error, Mr. Fischl has informed the Citizen that the picture as published "is not consistent with what my children consume for school snacks."
