photoshopping reality

When the press, public relations firms, government officials and political campaigns distort reality, twist the facts, apply filters like those used in PhotoShop to changes images, that is photoshopping reality. Closely associated with spin, perception management, marketing and propaganda.

When Secretary of State Colin Powell showed photographs to the UN proving the existence of chemical warfare plants, he was photoshopping reality. Also, President George W. Bush's infamous comment to FEMA chief Michael D. Brown while the latter was botching the federal response to Hurricane Katrina: "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job."

Photoshop Tourette's

The uncontrollable urge to create a photo in Photoshop after someone mentions "it would be cool if..."

"It would be really cool if someone added a Starbucks cup to the Iron Throne in 'Game of Thrones'."
"Damnit, Andrea! You just set off my Photoshop Tourette's! Now I have to go make that!"
