(IsraelNN.com) The day after it was revealed that a Reuters News Agency doctored photographs to show an anti-Israel bias, the news service incorrectly reported Tuesday afternoon that the IDF bombed a funeral procession in Lebanon.

Reuters has corrected without apology its earlier story that the IDF strafed a funeral procession and updated the report to state that the bombs struck a village at the same time the funeral was taking place, adding that "the air strike was not in the immediate vicinity of the funeral

I don't appreciate the way you described Jewish people, in jest or sarcasm, or not.

I have been telling the lefties out here what you have noted. It drives them nuts.

Given the thread I read yesterday about the guy at a wedding in Gaza losing control of the AK he was firing in the air at a wedding and greasing a couple of kids, I don't think they're inherently very safe either.

Not exactly... they'll build you a school as long as you don't mind if they put an armory under it. Actually, they'll do it whether you like it or not. And they'll feed you if you promise to do what you're told.

"I tell'ya... when GWB does leave the building it's gonna be scary to see what replaces him. I hope it has a spine."

Very scary stuff. That is why I go into orbit when our long time trolls tell us that we need to lose elections to punish GW and the Republicans.

Thanks for the correction. I forgot since I was only 3 at the time.:)

Buncha Republicans in 1950 thought this was a bad idea. Irony is that it's affected Republican presidents the most...

If 4 FDR terms were good for the America after Pearl Harbor? How about at least 3 terms for GW after 9/11 to complete the WOT?

CNN still reporting it as fact also.

[Grampa Dave]

Yep.

False reporting, lies, and deception are the only reporting Reuters does.

[PajamaTruthMafia]

Jonathan Hunt of Fox just reported it too (6:12 pm EST). Still running with a fake story!

This is more than just Reuters! Our local NBC affiliate ran a story with footage saying the same thing! Footage of wailing elderly veiled women accompanied the story. What SCUM they all are!

[nopardons]

Probably a whole lot and if there is a retraction, it will be buried and nobody will ever know about it.

Got it, thanks.

[MizSterious]

LOL on your pictures!! Great stuff!

[MizSterious]

Not just Reuters. As I mentioned in another post, NBC carried the same story, complete with footage of wailing veiled woman.

[nopardons]

Oh my goodness! LOL

Okay, three terms for President Bush, is okay by me.

Or in the case of the Pali's funeral procession; dead but alive.

Reuters has succeeded in elevating itself to the level of the New York Times. I read nothing from either of these sources because they have no credibility.
