476796 2006-08-07 11:00:00 This is totally off topic but I have been collecting articles about Reuters distributing faked photos from their freelance camermen. One already has been fired for some poor photoshopping, but other pictures are emerging, many we have already seen in the media doctored and stage managed to achieve the greatest propaganda effect.

476799 2006-08-07 20:05:00 Reuters has removed ALL photos by one of its photographers after finding other photoshopped photos.

www.ynetnews.com

This really shows the power of the web, the fakes were revealed by bloggers first, and only after it became public knowledge did Reuters act.

This is also an example of how powerfully we are affected by media manipulation.

Here is the site where the 2nd fake picture was revealed mypetjawa.mu.nu

More are expected to be revealed, as well as staged photos drinkingfromhome.blogspot.com

More power to the net....

MartynzThis makes no sense whatsoever
Are you saying that Reuters is run by Jews (in which case you can shove any anti-semitic comments up yer :eek: )
Or are you saying it is run by the former German rascist movement (in which case you can shove your white supremist crap there as well)
