Kony and Obama

Not sure if this is the correct area but I have to say the OBVIOUS try at the following pic to draw a link between these two is very in your face. I would not be surprised if Fox took some heat over this on the front page of their website...I mean it looks like they tried to find a pic of each one and match it up.

Not sure how long the comparison will be up so I took a snip of it.

Its not really a comparison. It's just two side by side headlines that happen to be about two black men.

has kony even been verified as a real person? or did they just take a picture of a militant in Africa and make up a story.

While I do agree...I have to say that a main stream media outlet chose the pics AND the placement and the similar style of the pics really stands out to me.

I see what you're saying, a subtle psychological association technique by FOX.

Hard to say if it's intentional. Humans also love symmetry and patterns so it could be that the editor or whoever signs off on this found the layout pleasing to the eye.

Hard to say.
