As news spread across the world of Iran’s provocative missile tests, so did an image of four missiles heading skyward in unison. Unfortunately, it appeared to contain one too many missiles, a point that had not emerged before the photo appeared on the front pages of The Los Angeles Times, The Financial Times, The Chicago Tribune and several other newspapers as well as on BBC News, MSNBC, Yahoo! News, NYTimes.com and many other major news Web sites.

They are not neutral. They are not anti-war. They are against THIS administration and cheering for the other side. Treason in a time of war by providing aid and comfort to sink morale.
Time was in WWII when we could say what it was.
Rofl!

Here we go again. You’ll all remember how the MSM brought us the first Fauxtography-fest in the summer of 2006. Well, the photo fakers and their dupes in the media are baaaack. And the blogosphere’s all over them.
LGF’s Charles Johnson and Brian Ledbetter have the rundown on the digitally enhanced Iranian missiles in an image distributed by Agence France-Press. See also: Kamangir, Blackfive, Pat Dollard, EU Referendum, Ace, Jim Hoft, Suitably Flip.
The AFP has retracted the photo. The NYT, fresh from its own photo-distorting embarrassment, reports:
Updated, 9:33 a.m., Agence France-Presse has retracted the image as “apparently digitally altered.”

Amuse us. Tell us again about the MSM's careful fact-checking and commitment to accuracy.
Photo picked up by all the major MSM outlets.,...
ROFLMAO!!!
Well....the photo checking guys work in a different department..../ROFL!!!
MSM advertising revenues? In decline.
MSM stockholders selling shares? Record high levels.
MSM research capacity? Invisible.
MSM assuming photoshopped missle pics are genuine? Priceless.
Say it isn't so!
If you don’t follow the news of the day you are uninformed.
If you turn to Big Media for the news of the day you are MISinformed.
They are multiplying....!
The TV shot is also likely doctored. Go to the posted article—the untouched picture shows a missile truck in the foreground with a missile that seems to have failed to launch.
Screaming!
The Pajamas media, doing the MSM's job for them again. BTT
Oh, the calumny!
