Just in case you think you saw it all, here is another series of fake photos with comprehensive explanations: http://powerlineblog.com/archives/014929.php And another one: http://mypetjawa.mu.nu/archives/184206.php
He's too busy setting up a philanthropic foundation to benefit Jews Good post hex! "al Reuters" years of biased reporting is finally catching up with them in the form of some very hard lessons.
Oh the outrage!! All this time people actually thought lebanon was getting blown up! Now we know it's actually just biased liberal media trying to brainwash us into siding with terrorists!
Don't you know it's like a big hollywood set over there in Lebanon. They could easily just pick that car up and move it around to different locations! Easily organised by a poor freelance photographer who hates jews!
Actually right on the page you linked to they claim the car was moved. And the 2nd link... the most outrageous of all! They added some extra trailing smoke to missiles that have trailing smoke!!! It makes those missiles look so much more evil! Oh the outrage! I'm so mad I'll never trust the biased liberal media again!
I don't know what the fuss is all about to be honest. The media have been using faked images for years.
It's not good practice to use faked photos... when Reuters found out a freelancer of theres was doing this, they immediately fired him and pulled every single one of his photos, yet some still continue to blame this on them, and accuse them of purposely doing it....
I should have been a bit more specific. Reuters obviously want true images, not the faked up ones. It isn't good for them. What I mean is freelancers have been rigging photos and posing 'characters' and 'victims' for years to get the shot that sells. There's an image of a soldier supposedly in the process of falling to ground just after being shot ... I think it was from the Spanish Civil War - for years this image was revered as the real deal until someone questioned whether it had been staged or not. I believe the photo agency was Magnum (could be wrong, of course), one of the most upstanding photo agencies in the world. Not saying the image was faked or it wasn't but the point is, people have been faking images since photography was invented so it really shouldn't come as a surprise when 'faked' images appear in the media. Found the image from the civil war:
Is it not possible that they were purposely doing it? It's either that, or they have no editorial process, or their editors are completely incompetent. Whichever it is, I find it kinda disturbing considering their work appears in newspapers all over the world.
