Men at work ( More Adnan Hajj fake photos )
Power line ^ | August 07, 2006 | Scott

Posted on 08/07/2006 10:23:05 AM PDT by george76

Page 1 above the fold in yesterday's New York Times featured a photo (below) by our new acquaintance Adnan Hajj.

I suspect that not all is as it appears to be in the photo, and somehow doubt that Times readers will ever learn why that might be the case.

The Reuters caption reads: "A severely wounded Lebanese civilian is carried away on a stretcher at Maameltain bridge, after it was targeted by Israeli air strikes, in the north of Beirut August 4, 2006. (Adnan Hajj/Reuters)" (Thanks to reader David Butz.)

Probably started out as a photo of a guy in a lounge chair sipping Mai Tai's before Adnan Hajj got a hold of it.

What's wrong with the photo? It's really Uncle Leo from Seinfeld.

Yeah, the point of this post, whatever it might be, escapes me as well.

Thanks for finding this but, there's more than one.

I think it may have been from the 2nd of August?

I don't know how to find it, but this Hajj guy was on the cover of the times with a back and orange picture of the strike on the fuel depot.

Priceless that the minute the story break about the world's present number 1 fake photographer...the NY TIMES is sporting a page 1 photo by the very same guy.

Guess good fraud is hard to find and must be shared by the MSM.

Do we have a picture of the man below the waist to repudiate/verify the "severely wounded" claim or are we just assuming that it is a lie?

That 'stretcher' appears to be about a foot long. Either that or it bends down sharply right below his shoulders.

This guy is an actor making himself useful to the old media for staged pictures.

is this the photograph of the purported corpse who woke up and fell off the stretcher when he was supposed to be a dead prop for the MSM that a caller to Rush spoke about?

No way. Don't be as loose with the facts as Adnan Hajj.

One thing that looks amiss to me is that the hand grasping the right front of the litter isn't straining in the least bit. Ever carry a litter? It's back-breaking work.

If this guy was actually in the litter, he would be falling out about now as the corner collapsed. It looks like the man and the litter are actually resting on something out of the picture.

Don't know about a below the waist picture .. but the media have been pushing these bogus stories .. so anything this is possible
