Seems your link is to a right-wing blog site claiming Reuter's mad an
admission. Brazen lying is the least of the things this right-wing fascist
site will do to further its outrageous agenda.
Where is the direct link to the admission by Reuters at the Reuters web
site??

I said the Reuters----REUTERS---web site, moron!
Not some Israeli right-wing, kill-all-the-Lebanese web site.
I had already seen that link and it was as much as my stomach could take
being at a site that applauds the killing of the Lebanese.
Find the link to the REUTERS web site, then come back here with their
authoritative admission.

Oh, bullshit.
Your link is to a rightwing website CLAIMING the photos were phony.
Please provide a link to a Reuters site in which they admit to altering
photos. Here's a tip for you: The Reuters site will be
www.reuters.com/somethingelse .
I checked out the photos on the rightwing site just out of curiosity --
clearly the folks who posted this shit know nothing about photo
interpretation. The real bullshit is on the site you provided.

That's pretty naive. Someone posts a blog entry without a URL backup
and you treat it as hard news. Shame on you.

They do not admit to altering photos - because they didn't.
What they did was buy photos from a biased photographer who had altered
his work to make the impression that the photo depicted more destruction
than the single burning building that it truly captured.
The photographer's name was Hajj.

And I'm sure Reuters did its damndest in making sure the photo was not
a fake maligning Israel.

Do you have any clue how many photos a photo editor goes through each
day? Of course you don't. They don't go through photos assuming that
some photog is being dishonest.
How often do you bitch about FOX news actually lying, on purpose?
This was a mistake and it has been corrected.

Incompetence still caused damage by a world-wide news agency promoting

I really think they're not that sorry about it. 'Whoopsie'.

Hajj? Sounds like a sand nigger to me.

Mistakes happen, it's a fact. You never know the circumstances. That
doesn't mean the agency is trying to spread any kind of propaganda.
There is already an investigation into this. Why would they
investigate if they were trying to spread anti-Israeli propaganda? Why
would they pull all the guy's photos?
You need to deal with the reality that mistakes happen, even in media
organizations. In fact, it was rather obvious manipulation but if you
aren't looking for it explicitly you might not even notice at first.
If Reuters was really trying to spread propaganda they would have hired
the best artists in the world to manipulate photos to meet their
agenda. Did that ever cross your mind? Do you have evidence they are
doing this? No, this, no, that, you don't have shit.
Mistakes happen. Don't believe me? Watch FOX News.
Have a nice whatever.

Definition of FOOL: those who make claims without supporting credible
evidence in a post, then have to be told to support the claims, which they
finally do in a follow-up post that should not have been necessary.
Definition of LIAR: typically a contributer to a right-wing hate blog web
site or a poster to the Usenet who states that something happened at time
A but did not, then that something happens at time B, which comes after
time A, and then posts proof that something happened, but does not admit
it happened after the lying claim.

An apology form Reuters should appear on reuters.com Anything else is
hearsay.
“INADMISSIBLE, adj. Not competent to be considered. Said of certain
kinds of testimony which juries are supposed to be unfit to be
entrusted with, and which judges, therefore, rule out, even of
proceedings before themselves alone. Hearsay evidence is inadmissible
because the person quoted was unsworn and is not before the court for
examination; yet most momentous actions, military, political,
commercial and of every other kind, are daily undertaken on hearsay
evidence. There is no religion in the world that has any other basis
than hearsay evidence. Revelation is hearsay evidence; that the
Scriptures are the word of God we have only the testimony of men long
dead whose identity is not clearly established and who are not known
to have been sworn in any sense. Under the rules of evidence as they
now exist in this country, no single assertion in the Bible has in its
support any evidence admissible in a court of law. It cannot be proved
that the battle of Blenheim ever was fought, that there was such as
person as Julius Caesar, such an empire as Assyria. But as records of
courts of justice are admissible, it can easily be proved that
powerful and malevolent magicians once existed and were a scourge to
mankind. The evidence (including confession) upon which certain women
were convicted of witchcraft and executed was without a flaw; it is
still unimpeachable. The judges' decisions based on it were sound in
logic and in law. Nothing in any existing court was ever more
thoroughly proved than the charges of witchcraft and sorcery for which
so many suffered death. If there were no witches, human testimony and
human reason are alike destitute of value.”

Sorry AIPAC apologist, but Reuters never admitted to faking the photos
as the pro-Israel web site contends.
Reuters admitted to displaying a doctored photo submitted to them by a
freelance photographer.
Once again the pro-Israel web site got it wrong.
