Well I know that. Sorry if I made you think otherwise. I was just trying to be as brief as possible since the Walls of Text some folks like to post here are often used as a way of making their arguments too much work to respond to.

Somehow your example with the security and crowd response made me laugh, imagine all these people have to be deleted/exchanged too. I see the picture of waving masses, where eventually one after another disappears - in the broadcast as well as in real life, to make sure that nobody could tell the story...
Is there any real difference if the modifier does it on a "live" broadcast or a recorded one? In your scenario what extra value is gained by being able to doing the modification immediately instead of the few seconds/minutes it takes now?

Only a fool puts his complete faith in a recorded image, "live" or not. This has been true since images were recorded on stone and tapestry. I don't see how anything is changed.
