Iran isn't far behind.
Evan in Farsi you can understand what happened here.
If not, try this:-
The shirt of EU foreign-policy chief Catherine Ashton at her Istanbul meeting with Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, Said Jalili, was apparently too revealing in the eyes of Iranian officials and official media..
Some state-controlled newspapers decided to redesign her top and make it more "Islamic."
And now this:
An Iranian hard-line website has posted doctored pictures of Sarah Shourd, who is seen alongside fellow American citizens Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer, the two men recently released from Iran after being charged with espionage.
“Mashreghnews” blurred the arms and bosom of Shourd, Bauer's fiancee and one-time fellow detainee, to make her presentable by Iranian hard-line standards.
A picture in which Shourd is kissing Bauer has also been blurred.
The distorted pictures of the U.S. citizens during their joyful reunion have been posted on several other Iranian websites as well.
The exposure of uncovered female body parts is considered un-Islamic and inappropriate by the Iranian state and the media often blur, retouch, or Photoshop pictures that might be considered offensive.
