Fauxtography: it's the new black
What would we do without a blogosphere? We'd get lied to a whole lot more, that's what! After Rathergate, you'd think these people would learn a lesson. You'd think. A brief round-up:
- Were the Qana bodies staged?
- The Passion of the Toys - this one's funny
- Photo Op
- As usual, Michelle Malkin is all over it
- Extreme Makeover - Beirut Edition
- More Extreme Makeover Beirut Edition
- And the folks who started all this, Reuters Doctoring Photos from Beirut? at Little Green Footballs

Mr. LB,
We've got problems, that's for sure. One might say that the conclusion of the Vietnam War was one big media-induced collapse.
I loved the toys link, that was great.
I've been thinking about the willfully ignorant for some time now. I don't know that there's anything we can do about them. For the rest of us, thank God for the internet and talk radio.

Well, I see two groups. One group, like you say, willfully ignorant, has set their course. Only they can change their mind.
But I see another group, unwillfully ignorant if you will, that think they're getting the truth from the drive-by media. It's up to us (their friends and family) to educate them as best we can about bias and "Fauxtography".
