White House photo honoring Georgia women's tennis criticized for male foreground

The White House posted a photograph from a ceremony honoring the University of Georgia women's tennis team that placed six men in the foreground while the players stood largely behind them. The team was at the White House after winning its most recent championship. Observers noted one man stood on a riser so the men occupied roughly half the frame, and critics called the composition misogynistic for obscuring the athletes.
