French Lawmakers Want To Put Warnings On Photoshopped Images
This is amazing. Simply amazing.
A group of 50 politicians are sick and tired of all the photoshopped images and want to put a law in place which will FORCE magazines, billboards, and product packaging to say which shots have been "digitally enhanced".
Campaigning MP Valerie Boyer, of President Nicolas Sarkozy's UMP party, said the wording should read:"Retouched photograph aimed at changing a person's physical appearance".
"These photos can lead people to believe in a reality that does not actually exist, and have a detrimental effect on adolescents. "Many young people, particularly girls, do not know the difference between the virtual and reality, and can develop complexes from a very young age.
"In some cases this leads to anorexia or bulimia and very serious health problems. It's not just a question of public health, but also a way of protecting the consumer."
What do you think about their decision? I think it is a wonderful idea, but won't EVERY picture just have that warning on it then? LOL. I really do think it's a step in the right direction though.
