At the time, photographic alteration was not done by digital manipulation, but by X-acto knife, airbrush and darkroom tricks. While the fencepost removal is not even as smooth as contemporary methods could produce, such manipulation was not a trivial matter of a few mouse clicks.

I suppose the photo is more famous now for the pole-removal than the massacre aftermath it captured. Stupid.

And who got their five year old kid to do the work...? (C'mon, you have to admit that's a sucky 'shop job, y'all.
