A photograph shows Steve Bannon with a bloody lip.
In August 2017, as an odd storyÂ appeared about President Donald Trumpâ€™s strategist and former Breitbart editor-in-chief Steve Bannon calling a New Republic writer and rambling about everything from white nationalism to foreign policy, an image appeared separately showing him with a bloody lip and collar: Â This is not a genuine photograph of Steve Bannon. It was created and posted by satire outlet The OnionÂ on 14 August 2017, and published with the headline: â€œNervous Steve Bannon Binge-Eats Entire Class Of Interns Amid Calls For Removalâ€. The humor site took a genuine photograph of Bannon and then added a little blood near his lips and collar. The edits were evidently subtle and convincing enough to fool many viewers into thinking that the image was genuine.Â The original photograph was taken by Mark Wilson for Getty Images on 20 April 2017.
