This is absolutely unbelievable. Remember those photos of untouched toys in the wreckage of Lebanon? Well, PRIMER has AP photos of him setting up the “stage” for the shots.
Funny. I thought there were no staged photos out of Lebanon.
As I said a few days ago: We are losing the propaganda war. Or at least, we were. I think bloggers are beginning to push the mainstream media into recognizing this sort of trickery, and with luck, will start shaming them into being far more careful about their middle eastern stringers.
If this keeps up, I’m going to have to open a new category: Propaganda.
They explained all this on Daily Kos. It is just their culture to dramatize death, so why not photograph it?
AP catching Reuters? Pot calling kettle.
