Nadav Kander for Time |
The photo The Economist ran on the cover of its Nov. 10 issue showing Obama and Michelle hugging is the image that the Obama campaign sent out on his Twitter account on Election Night with the text "Four more years." The photo, taken Aug. 15, 2012 in Iowa, became the most re-tweeted Tweet of all time and the most liked Facebook photo of all time.
For the Aug. 27 issue of Newsweek, a spokesperson for the magazine said that the image was altered to remove a piece of gum that was visible in the shot.
