The trick is sticking with GREAT doctored photos - fakes which impacted society to a non-trivial degree.
#6 caused a brief stir in international news, depicting a captured US soldier until someone pointed out the photo was of a toy.
#9 provided circumstantial evidence that something is wrong with the Obama’s eligibility for President (why post a lame fake as proof of eligibility when the real thing would resolve the issue in minutes for a few dollars?).
#10 ended Dan Rather’s long career as top news spokesman.
#11 was the first great “photoshop job”. Obvious fake/funny, but showed how a very convincing fake could be made in minutes.
#28 was allegedly found in the 9/11 WTC rubble and was a sentimental news hit - until proven a fake.
#30 became one of the great modern Internet fads.
Others above are notable for being outrageous for gall to fake & publish so publicly, but did not have quite the resounding cultural impact.

#11 may or may not be a photoshop composite but the original concept of that was cranked out in the 1980s (that may be a revisit of it, I don’t know).

History of the picture:
Consider, for example, the famous photograph of Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby playing rock music together in a Dallas basement. Such fake photographs have a long history; Stalins photo retouchers, for example, spent considerable time airbrushing Trotsky out of the historical record. But the transformation of the original Bob Jackson photo of Ruby shooting Oswald into In-A-Gadda-Da-Oswald did not require a skilled craftsman. George Mahlberg created it with Photoshop in forty minutes and it quickly spread across the World Wide Web, popping up in multiple contexts that erase the credit of the original counterfeiter.
