Photo bias is a tactic of using an unflattering or menacing photo of a supporter of an opposing position to create a hostile impression in the reader.
Examples include:
- Time magazine's cover photo of Ann Coulter, designed to make her look like a childish fool
- The New York Times's photo (June 10, 2007) of a man with missing teeth to represent opponents of the pending federal immigration bill
- Photo of John Kerry doctored to appear that he's shaking hands with Anton Lavey[1]
