A McCain ad aired on Fox News channel with the words "HANG" in the
background along with a photograph of Barack Obama has sparked outrage
after being noticed by a reporter at a local Fox television affiliate.

The words "HIGHER TAXES" are transposed on an image of Obama standing
in front of a crowd. The background is blurred at the edges so that
the words from Obama's signature theme -- change -- has been cut down
to the word "HANG." The shot appears for about a second. You can watch
the ad in its entirety below.

Asked about the image, the McCain camp said, "We're not even
validating such an outrageous and preposterous claim with a comment."

Strikingly, the image of Obama with the word hang in the background is
blurred far more heavily on the side where the C would have been,
suggesting the decision was intentional. The company that produced the
ad refused to comment when the local Fox affiliate inquired.

Not everyone is buying the claim the transposition is deliberate. Even
at the liberal blog Daily Kos, an informal poll indicated 76 percent
thought the image was deliberate, with 23 percent saying it was a
coincidence.

"Is this a coincidence?" one diarist wrote. "People spend hours and
hours editing political ads, I really don't see how this could go
unnoticed by the editors. Maybe they saw it and thought it wasn't
noticeable or maybe they thought it wasn't important."
