Twitter erupts at Obama 'propaganda' pic

Obama

Social media went wild over a photo of Obama with a rainbow shooting from his arm.



Twitter users took to task a presidential photo released from the White House that appears to show the commander-in-chief shooting a rainbow from his finger as he embarks on a plane trip.


The photo catches Obama with his arm raised high, ostensibly saying goodbye. But the photographer captured a rainbow in the background, strategically placed in line with his arm. The White House tweeted the photo with this text: “‘With hard work and hope, change is always within our reach.’ – President Obama.”

Social media users were quick to comment.


One wrote: “Holy propaganda, Batman. This would make any third-world dictator proud,” Mediaite found.


Another: “@WhiteHouse I’m absolutely speechless, because I’m laughing too hard to speak. Seriously?”


A third: “Worst thing about the @WhiteHouse Obama rainbow shot: that they still see him this way, or that some still fall for it?”


And yet one more: “@WhiteHouse this is simply terrible.”
