Graphic: Beirut Photoshop: Altered Photo prima facie evidence of tampering


Doctor Reuters: One

-ring!- Yes, Doctor Reuters…

Yes? Well- well- Please, yes I can explain. The ‘Smoke Over Beirut’ picture was an accident as the photographer was trying to remove dust-

What? How can you possibly get DUST on a digital picture with no negative? Uh, well-

Wailing Lady July 24 & Aug 5” Now just hold on there, Reuters is in the business of seeking out the truth, and the truth is… uh… she… the Jews… uhm… what? DrinkingFromHome? Scar is the same, right eye same…

But that doesn’t prove-

Now see here!

What? “See here” is a figure of speech-

Hunh? Whaddaya mean?

Yeah, Reuters from offices all over the world were crawling all over that Little Green Footballs site, but they’re clean, Chief… they’re just humans, ordinary humans, with experience and learning and a hunger for –

What? Chief… CHIEF! Listen, if you don’t authorize some extra staff, right now, to comb our online archives and pull ALL doctored pictures, there might not BE a Reuters this time next week!

And no, I don’t see a way we can blame this on Bush or the Jews…

Okay, Chief, there’s more calls coming in… Yeah, nice knowing you, too…
