This is basically accurate — a November 2025 photo of Karoline Leavitt was removed from AFP and Getty after the White House made its displeasure known. However, AFP insists the removal was their own editorial decision, not a formal demand, citing poor camera angle and availability of better images. The framing of "scrubbed after WH complained" skips this important distinction about who ultimately made the call — AFP claims editorial independence, though critics note the White House's informal pressure accomplishes removal either way.
