Picture Fraud

Recommended Posts

Dude, you didn't hear about the photographer that Reuters fired for this? He even admitted to doing it "in an attempt to clear up the picture" or something like that. :S
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Don't even try. If a pro Israel website (or a pro-anything-that-people-are- against website) put up "2 + 2 = 4".... people would hint that some kind of bias on the site affects the ability of what is said to be true.
Oh, hello again!

Yeah. There's a thread here that I contributed to. Reuters found him out, sacked him, and broke the story! So they hardly metit the criticism and the accusations of deliberate falsehood made in the video.

The video claims bias throughout the international media wherever the coverage isn't pro-Israeli. Coming from the website in question, I'd say that was a case of; "The Pot calling the Kettle black". Wouldn't you?

Hi Falxori

I think there's a old saying something like one of the first casualties of war is the truth.

We were Dahran during desert storm and witnessed a scud, taking out Bldg. approx 20 US dead. The scud wasn't fired on by the ground to air missle, we witnessed it fall from the sky.

Then we turned on CNN and watched a SCud being intercepted by a ground to air missle with the excuse that the patriot only destroyed the scud and not the war head before it hit the bldg.

Everyone lies during war thats how the generals come up with 100% execution and zero negative indicators.

R.I.P.

Hi 68

Good find:)
"Some analysts say the altered photograph will not play well in some parts of the Muslim world, where there is already suspicion of the United States.

Asked whether the leaflet could be used by some to say the United States is willing to doctor or make up things -- as has been alleged about the videotape found in Afghanistan by the United States -- U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said he had not thought about the possibility

Rumsfeld, speaking at Thursday's Pentagon media briefing, said there was "nothing much" the United States could do about what others might claim about the leaflets."

Good job Rummy:S

Thats all folks;)

R.I.P.

I recall Colin Powell showing pictures of "mobile bio weapons labs" to the UN Security Council not so long ago. He wasn't fired, though.



Powell wasn't fired, but he was man enough to jump ship after he did his 4 yr's.B|

Good job coney rice. B|

Exactly. It's not like anyone got killed over those fake biological-lab pictures.

so did Reuters fire the guy for fraud, or merely incompetence in the alterations. Dust repair! Ha - would any believe he was using film?

One distinction between him and Rumsfield is that we know politicians are liars. Journalist claim a higher plane.
