Does this go in the sidebar? I think it does. If you agree, would you mind putting it there for me? I don't want to get accused of abuse again.

Thanks.

Was this picture taken by the same man that Reuters just let go?

That's not an F16 shooting missles, it's an F16 dropping flares, chaff, and AAA counter measure designed to mask the planes signature.

This idiot loves the clone tool. Jeez, you'd think that he'd have the intelligence to be a bit more discreet about his fakery. His stuff is just plain obvious.

He's not even good @ it. I'm no expert with Photoshop but even I could do a better job.

It probably would fool the ignorant, but I knew it was flares as soon as I saw it. I actually wondered initially what the fuss could be about until I read far enough.

These people have no idea how much they're hurting their own industry and what little credibility they had left. And I'm getting entirely too much pleasure out of watching as their ratings plummet.

But then I guess this photographer only reads the Koran.

I'm with you. I used to post articles all the time but the last time I got chewed out so bad I haven't posted in about a year. I asked for help understanding what was wrong but was ignored. :(

It's about time for people to write to their local newspapers and demand retractions for any Reuters stories they have run.

Reuters has been whoring for radical Islam since day one. Remember its first reaction to September 11 was to announce that it would discontinue use of the word "terrorist" because "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter." Now Reuters is doctoring photos to manipulate its readership into opposing Israel. Reuters is now a legitimate target in the war on terrorism because it is colluding with a terrorist group.

Yeah. It's too bad because they're bound to keep alot of good information out of the light it may/not deserve.
