Times of isreal used same photo. Would be funny if it werent so common. Props and fake news. Just google it if you want different source. Measles gonna get you! https://www.wakingtimes.com/2019/04/...mass-hysteria/
CBS Dallas Forth Worth also used a photo of a child without the parents permission. The problem was his parents saw the photo and the child did not have measles in the photo but rather it was a reaction to the MMR vaccine. They corrected the error after being called out by the family. https://twitter.com/CBSDFW/status/1116073347903893505
You’d have to google it to find the original photo as it was taken down, probably under threat of a lawsuit.
When they do stuff like this, even when unintentional, they make it harder for the viewers to trust that news sources. Sometimes it might be better if a news story comes out later so more info can be found and used.
"In the midst of what is being referred to as the worst measles outbreak in 25 years, the mainstream media is doing their part in stoking national hysteria. The point is to convince the general public that measles is the number one health crisis at the moment, and that it is so bad that we must forfeit our right to health freedom and submit to state-sanctioned, forced vaccinations."

Imagine most folk prefer not to be photographed when they have measles or other ailments.
It is customary for ALL media to use stock photos.
Does not make the content fake.
The CDC is the source of most news on the measles outbreak.
It was a stock photo of a healthy baby that had been photoshopped. And then the photoshopped image presented as a real photo.
Using stock photos? Is OK. If they are identified as stock photos.
Using photoshopped stock photos, presenting them as real, and trying to use them to scare people? Not OK.
Yep.
Also, if the media shared a photo of my child who actually had an adverse reaction from the MMR vaccine and passed it off as a child with measles I would be beyond angry.
I edited my post with a link, feel free to take a look. It really happened.
Why so defensive of fake media stories promoting fear of measles? Is there any valid reason why they would need to use fake photos instead of real ones?
It wasn't a "fake story" but nice try extrapolating from the picture to the FACTS of the story...
You do realize MMR is a live vaccine right???
Do you know what a "measles vaccination rash is?" Happens in about 5 percent of children who receive the vaccination....completely harmless and devoid of the other more harmful measles symptoms...
Do you know what the "measles vaccination rash" looks like??? EXACTLY like measles, same appearance, same distribution on the body...
Hence why it would be easy to "confuse" a picture of "measles vaccine rash" with "measles"
THEY LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME
Tomato....Tomahto
Why the need to try and invalidate FACTUAL stories detailing serious medical issues over the mislabeling of a picture that essentially DID show measles???
Hitting a little too close to home by threatening your anti vaxxer status???
