Honest mistake?
" In this blog, the same child is seen being carried by three different men in their rush to get the obviously dead child to an ambulance. The photos were clearly staged for each different photographer over several hours.
Did the photographers know this? It's hard to know. "
Sure it's a blog... but when news and situations are deliberately doctored like that to fool the general public, it sure isn't anything that can be labeled an honest mistake. If you meant an honest mistake by the photographers (didn't know that they were being manipulated) then I'll concede that you are probably correct, although I wouldn't lump in the original photographer into those who are honest.
Also: "Yesterday, Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora initially said 40 people were killed in an Israeli air strike in Marjayoun. Oops. Slight exaggeration. Actually five people were killed."
Wonder how many people have REALLY been killed in this war....
