[263]-278) and index.Picture perfect -- Photo-op politics and the media -- Contesting control of the picture -- Exposed images : from the Supreme Court justices to the Truman show -- Mythic pictures : movie heroes from John Wayne to Spiderman -- The person and the pose.We say the camera doesn't lie, but we also know that pictures distort and deceive. In Picture Perfect, Kiku Adatto brilliantly examines the use and abuse of images today. Ranging from family albums to Facebook, political campaigns to popular movies, images of war to pictures of protest. Adatto reveals how the line between the person and the pose, the real and the fake, news and entertainment is increasingly blurred. New technologies make it easier than ever to capture, manipulate, and spread images. But even in the age of the Internet, we still seek authentic pictures and believe in the camera's promise to document, witness, and interpret our lives.Mass mediaInfluenceTelevision in politicsUnited StatesMass media and cultureUnited StatesPhotography, ArtisticPopular cultureUnited StatesImages, PhotographicTelevision broadcastingUnited StatesJournalismUnited StatesMotion picturesSocial aspectsUnited StatesPhotojournalismMass mediaInfluence.Television in politicsMass media and culturePhotography, Artistic.Popular cultureImages, Photographic.Television broadcastingJournalismMotion picturesSocial aspectsPhotojournalism.324.7/30973Adatto Kiku1947-,995739MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQNUWS:WBOOK996198836803316Picture perfect2281647UNISA
