MADRID (AFP) – A Spanish Civil War photo by Robert Capa that shows a Republican soldier at the apparent moment he was fatally hit in the back by a bullet was in fact staged, a Spanish newspaper claimed on Friday.

I actually dislike photography, especially when it purports to be art. It's such a poor teller. But that's just me and my own brooding.
- don't worry, you're still cool in my book. I would even go so far as to say I understand your positionbolus
- who called photojournalism art?danthon
- I despise you now.doesnotexist
- I love you.doesnotexist
- I love you too, bolus. But that's because you are a great story-teller, not just a photographer.Corvo2
- Photography is just incidental. Even if you fake it can't escape the fact that makes it so. It's a record.Corvo2
- either a fleeting moment of a fact or the result of a plan which may look like a fact. In this sense, it's never the fact.Corvo2

Film shot by Bill Genaust, excerpted from the 1945 "Carriers Hit Tokyo" newsreelFollowing the flag raising, Rosenthal sent his film to Guam to be developed and printed.[20] George Tjaden of Hendricks, Minnesota, was likely the technician who printed it.[21] Upon seeing it, AP photo editor John Bodkin exclaimed "Here's one for all time!" and immediately radiophotoed the image to the AP headquarters in New York at 7:00 a.m., Eastern War Time.[22] The photograph was picked up off the wire very quickly by hundreds of newspapers. It "was distributed by Associated Press within seventeen and one-half hours after Rosenthal shot it—an astonishingly fast turnaround time in those days."[23]
However, the photo was not without controversy. Following the second flag raising, Rosenthal had the Marines of Easy Company pose for a group shot, the "gung-ho" shot.[24] This was also documented by Bill Genaust.[25] A few days after the picture was taken, back on Guam, Rosenthal was asked if he had posed the photo. Thinking the questioner was referring to the 'gung-ho' picture, he replied "Sure." After that, Robert Sherrod, a Time-Life correspondent, told his editors in New York that Rosenthal had staged the flag-raising photo. Time's radio show, 'Time Views the News', broadcast a report, charging that "Rosenthal climbed Suribachi after the flag had already been planted... Like most photographers [he] could not resist reposing his characters in historic fashion."[1]
As a result of this report, Rosenthal was repeatedly accused of staging the picture, or covering up the first flag raising. One New York Times book reviewer even went so far as to suggest revoking his Pulitzer Prize.[1] For the decades that have followed, Rosenthal repeatedly and vociferously refuted claims that the flag raising was staged. "I don't think it is in me to do much more of this sort of thing... I don't know how to get across to anybody what 50 years of constant repetition means."[1] Genaust's film also shows the claim that the flag-raising was staged to be erroneous.
