That's probably what happened: due to bombed bridge, hezzies informed him that this time it takes much more than 7 hours to deliver the bodies, so they need to reschedule the show for the place TBD.

Sure - a local hezzie stage manager responsible for setting up "the massacre" scene.

Actually, I don't believe the Israelis are trying to kill people. They are trying to take out the highways and byways, and returning fire from whence it came to take out arsenals. The people get warned. If they stick around it is at their own peril.

Exactly. They are in the process of getting caught --- or, rather, the MSM is getting caught.

Did the refrigerated truck bringing in the bodies get stuck in traffic?

Why admit this? That is, indeed, the $64,000 question. Makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes.....

I didn't. I simply used one example of the leftists making up numbers to suit their purpose. That's all.

Another example, using pictures and reporting, would be the NBC news story several years ago in which NBC "proved" how dangerous a particular pick-up truck was because a rear-end accident could cause it to explode. The only trouble with that story was that NBC staged the explosion by placing explosives under the truck they blew up.
The important thing was/is to "prove" the desired results, and anything leftists need to do to achieve those ends is permissable.
Who was it who said, "The ends justifies the means?"

"And how many will see this correction? Do you thing the NY Times and the Boston Globe will give it page A1 coverage?"
Only as explained in the "larger context." Possibly accompanied with a few pictures with GHG and Black Burqa lady, preferably supplied by al-Reuters.
To: pissant
Why bother to be accurate now? "40" sounded really good. Especially coming from Lebanon's prime minister.
It added that "air of respect".
To: pissant
So the bomb only blew off 40 percent of a goat.
Okay, that's fair.
