Jiminy. LGF seems to have caught Reuters passing off doctored photos to amplify the impact of Israeli air raids.
Ace has been saying for a week that mainstream media is headed for a major meltdown, by outsourcing so much of their reporting to low-paid foreign stringers with highly questionable loyalties and ethics.
This looks like that meltdown.

Go to lgf as well for evidence that Israel is doing well in spite of it all (hint: Nasrallah's begging for a cease-fire) and for links to more evidence that that the al-Qana incident wasn't all it was reported to be.

UPDATE: Reuters has pulled the photo and announced it will no longer publish photos by the photographer in question. A Powerline reader raises another interesting question about the photographer. Read about that and more here.

UPDATE 2: Reuters is withdrawing all 900+ photos taken by this photographer [s?] after a 2nd doctored photo was found. Powerline is on the case of not only photo doctoring, but photo staging by the same dude.

UPDATE 3: Again, Jiminy.
