FBI Digitally Edits Photo of Osama bin Laden
Last week the FBI released a digital picture of what they believe Osama bin Laden would look like today. However they used a photo of Spanish politician Gaspar Llamazares and a younger picture of bin Laden and to get the digital photo. Llamazares is extremely angry with the FBI for posting this picture which will now make it hard for him to travel. The FBI never asked if it was alright to use his photograph that is now posted all over the world and now the news and the Internet. I'm mentioning this story because his rights were violated. The FBI are using their freedom of press to post this picture all over and at the same time ruin the reputation of Llamazares. It reminded me of the homework assignment and how people abuse situations and other people's rights to further themselves. The FBI has yet to offer any kind of apology.

I agree that the FBI abused there freedom of press rights. This causes a huge violation on privacy based on the fact that Llamazares has no viable connection with Osama bin Laden.
