Title says it all. I need this god dam photo.

I remember seeing a photo of a number of high profile American journalists recreating a photo, themselves posing as either dead bodies (in Iraq?) or hostages, in a big group photo.

It really stuck with me. I am sure something like this happened. I am sure someone on hexbear showed me it. I now can't find it.

Help! I've tried everything I can think of. I even asked ChatGPT (which was useless, of course).

Many thanks

EDIT: I'm still searching. Can't find a fucking thing. I feel like perhaps it wasnt even widely reported as scandalous at the time.

I'm IP banned from Reddit for some milquetoast Israel criticism. Legit, I stumbled upon r/Judaism or something, and as a Jewish person I pointed out a couple of times (with lib-esque civility language I might add) that anti-zionism is not the same as anti-Semitism. IP-banned. No other history of Reddit bans. Any new account I make gets banned within an hour.
