(CNN) -- A graphic image of what was reported to be Osama bin Laden's bloodied face, which went viral on the Internet and was plastered on the front page of newspapers around the world, is a fake.
The lower part of the photograph, which shows his partially opened mouth and graying beard, is almost identical to another image of bin Laden published years ago. The upper half shows his wounds in detail greater than that of the rest of the photo and there are unusual and abrupt shifts in the coloration of his skin.
A photographer consulted by CNN said the gruesome photograph is most definitely not real.
"I have seen a great number of poorly Photoshopped images in my time as a photographer and I can tell by the pixels that it is a fake," said Kenna Lindsay, a New York-based photographer who works with composite images.

Wont matter! Trump already used his tell proof card.
The media was already reporting that these photos were fake, even when you had the post "Is America really buying that Osama Bin Laden was killed". That’s why i couldn’t understand why people were arguing over these photos.
Whitehouse now says photo's of Osama will stay classified, being sensitive to the Muslims I guess.
They weren't sensitive when we watched people jumping from a 1000 feet from the WTC or when the terrosists aired videos of the beheadings on Al Jazeer.
Heck with them, show his dead arse!
To all who doubted the info I gave in the origional post "I told ya so!", now go have a Coke and a smile! See, unlike Nobama, I have no reason to tell lies!
They need to send divers down in the Arabian Sea to drag his body up and show the world what he looks like after a few crabs have nibbled on him. Then let the victims families of 9-11 decide what to do with his scumbag body.
