Chavez's Leni Reifenstahl?

Publius Pundit points toward the blog Devil's Excrement at Salon, which blogs on matters Venezuelan. There you'll find a photo of a crowd that appears to be cheering for Tarek William Saab, the Governor of Anzoategui. But there's a problem, as the DE points out: the photo is faked, with many faces duplicated throughout what is in fact a montage.

Hugo and the boys are going to have to do better than this if they're to enter the top tier of history's dictators. Where's old Leni when you need her?

Of course, America's finest institutions of higher learning aren't above similar tricks. Remember this attempt, Badger fans?
