An American Tragedy, Time. June 1994

On June 27, 1994, Time published a cover story An American Tragedy” with a mugshot image of O. J. Simpson on the cover. […] Time itself then became the object of a media scandal, and it was found it had employed photo manipulation to darken the photo, for the purpose of, as commentators have claimed, making Simpson appear more menacing.” The publication of the cover photo drew widespread criticism of racist editorializing, and yellow journalism. Time publicly apologized. ~Wikipedia
