So you may recall that last week, the story spread about how Demi Moore’s lawyers flipped out and sent ridiculous (laughably so) legal threats<\/a> to a few blogs that were discussing whether or not Moore’s photo on the cover of W<\/i> magazine had been digitally retouched and, if so, how poor a job the retouching was. Most specifically, there was the point that her hip looked out of place. None of the conversation (which had mostly died out a month before Ms. Moore’s lawyers got involved) suggested anything even remotely negative about Ms. Moore herself — but about the potentially poor editing job on the photo itself.<\/p>\n

Of course, once the story was pushed back into the news by Moore’s lawyers, a second look at the evidence suggested quite clearly<\/i> that the image had, in fact, been retouched<\/a> (not that there’s anything wrong with that). And, now, the story gets even more bizarre. Anthony Citrano, one of the bloggers being threatened by Moore’s lawyers — and who has (reasonably) demanded a complete retraction and apology from Moore’s lawyers — got in touch to let us know that the Korea edition<\/i> of W<\/i> magazine just happened to have fixed the hip problem<\/a> on their cover version of the same photo.<\/p>\n

As Citrano points out, this leads to one of two possibilities:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Citrano was correct all along that the version with the funky hip a bad image edit or…\n<\/li>\n
  2. By Moore’s own lawyer’s explanation, W<\/i> in Korea had defamed Demi Moore by editing her image (which the lawyers insisted needed no editing)\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Either way, at least one of those images was apparently edited, and Citrano’s still waiting for that apology and retraction…<\/p>\n
