Washington Post: National Archives admits to altering photo of 2017 Women's March

In changes to the original photo, Trump's name is blurred from signs that read: 'God Hates Trump' and 'Trump & GOP — Hands Off Women,' the Washington Post reports

The photograph, taken by Getty Images' Mario Tama, shows a sea of people marching down Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, DC, on January 21, 2017 -- a day after Trump's inauguration. In changes to the original photo, Trump's name is blurred from signs that read:"God Hates Trump" and"Trump & GOP — Hands Off Women," according to the Post. According to the Post, the word p***y is also blocked out from one sign and the word vagina is no longer visible in another.

Kleiman said the National Archives does not alter"images or documents that are displayed as artifacts in exhibitions.""In this case, the image is part of a promotional display, not an artifact," she added. National Archive officials did not respond to the newspaper's request for any examples of previous times when the museum edited photos or documents to avoid political controversy.
