Definition from
Blog: Licence Pro Images & Histoire:
La "fauxtographie"est un néologisme utilisé dans la presse en général et qui évoque une image retouchée par Photoshop ou autres logiciels.<br />La pratique de la "fauxtographie" peut générer des polémiques au sein de la profession de journaliste ou de photo-reporter parce qu'elle soulève le débat de modifier ou pas l'information initiale.
Example sentences:
