what will Hamodia do if Hillary becomes President?

You see no difference between necessity and non-necessity?

News = non-necessity
Walking outdoors = necessity.

You forgot one.
Internet = non-necessity

Except as OP notes, a blanket statement no longer works in 2016.

Blanket statement with no Photoshop? Why?
It works for most Yiddish newspapers with no issues as long as they don't mess around.

Kinda agree. Guess that's why every decent Jew has a decent filter?

Who decides what's a chilul hashem? I'm pretty sure according to the Rambam, the biggest chilul hashem is actually committing a sin.  it's not our self conscious perception of the non-jews perception of of our customs and practices. I don't even believe that the average non-Jewish believer has as hard as a time respecting these papers non women policy as our self conscious modern orthodox have and hence perceive to be a chilul hashem.
Though perhaps in certain instancees it may be a "Chasah Eivah" but that's not a Chilul Hashem as far as I know.

It's called "Venishmarta Mikol Davar Ra" read it about it, it's in the bible. It's also expounded upon in the Talmud in Avoda Zara.
If they want to be machmir on this, kudos to them. Just like we want to be respected for our opinions and practices whether we are chabad, litvish, modox or whatever, we should respect theirs!

Names of women should also be removed. Maybe we should write a letter to the editor how writing about women causes men to think about women the same as pictures do. That would solve all their problems, just only write about men.

Is it important to anyone here how the rest of the world perceives Judaism? Yes I am being serious.

No filter will stop everything so the only safe way would be to ban the internet.

Yes and no.

Been there done that.

I think that by now you have seen often enough that world perception is meaningful but not at the top of the priority list.

Have you tried livigent tailored by either TAG, geder or meshimur?

[aygart]

She doesn't cover her hair. How can they publish a picture of a woman without her hair covered?

[Emkay]

To me it is but it's a lost cause.

[JTZ]

Yes and no.
 Been there done that.

I will address the yes part then. Taking out women like the POTUS makes it look like a fringe religion at best. Not saying that is what it is but the way the rest of the world will perceive it.

[aygart]

Have you tried livigent tailored by either TAG, geder or meshimur?

Maybe that is what he meant by "ban the internet"?

[Menachem613]

Why wasn't this done years ago? Why the recent changes?

[JTZ]

Have you tried livigent tailored by either TAG, geder or meshimur?

No but it works 100% of the time?

[Ephraimh]

Maybe that is what he meant by "ban the internet"?

I can tell you haven't tried it.

[aygart]

I can tell you haven't tried it.

or that I wasn't serious, or both.

[Emkay]

No but it works 100% of the time?

If done right they can.

[JTZ]

There are still fair minded individuals out there.
