It was said back in the days before computers and hi-technology, when photos were extremely difficult to fake (touch up). And what it meant was; writers CAN write anything (true or not!), but a picture (photograph) cannot lie.
Example: If a writer (any person) wrote a paragraph or page on, for example, the M60 Main Battle Tank, stating that it was used in the Vietnam War (which has already been done by the way), and then submits a photograph to go with the story...if that pictured tank has 5 support rollers, a rounded front slope (tip of the bow), a rounded turret, a flash suppresser at the gun's muzzle, and the bore evacuator near the muzzle actually touching the flash suppresser, then the writer was incorrect and the picture is mis-titled...that is an M48 Patton tank...which was used in the Vietnam War.
The M60 MBT was not used in the Vietnam War.
