2006 Lebanon War photographs controversies

The 2006 Lebanon War photographs controversies (also referred to as "Hizbollywood" or "Hezbollywood")[1] refers to instances of photojournalism from the 2006 Lebanon War that misrepresented scenes of death and destruction in Lebanon caused by Israeli air attacks.

CAMERA, a media watch organization, said that the photographic manipulations were used by the mainstream media in an attempt to sway public opinion and paint Israel as an aggressor, and suggesting that Israel was guilty of targeting civilians.[2]
