In a handout picture released on the news website of Iran's Revolutionary Guards, four long and medium range missiles rise into the air after being test-fired at an undisclosed location in the Iranian desert on July 9, 2008. Iran today test-fired a missile it said is capable of reaching Israel, angering the United States amid growing fears that the standoff over the contested Iranian nuclear drive could lead to war.

At least one of the photographs released today by Iran and published by an unquestioning Western media is a Photoshop fake:

A reader emailed to let me know that a site named MilitaryPhotos.net actually noticed the modified photo a little earlier: Todays Pics! Wednesday, July 9th, 2008 - Page 4 - Military Photos.
You use a spotting og in hunting.
It makes some weird hollow noise and points at stuff.
In this case, it was a fauxtoshopped Iranian missile.
*pats Og on head*
Good Og.
Uhhh....another typo fun time....
og = of...
LOL!
Thanks!
I am the king of typos, just ask anyone in the undead thread.
;-)
I love original spotting og, new spotting og is just too sweet.
There was an article linked to by Drudge where the AP claimed they did not use the doctor’d images.
I was not competing for your crown.,,,,,
They did their own???
I know.
Typos tend to happen more often when I am lurking, or somewhere in the general vicinity.
*Sorry about that*

OOps.

You are a typo GOD.
Try “patient zero of teh typo virus”.

It's the story journalistic elite would rather just go away. After Reuters' admission one of its photographers, Adnan Hajj, manipulated two war images from Lebanon after bloggers smoked out his crude Photoshop alterations, and all 920 of his Reuters photos were pulled, evidence of far more troubling photo staging and media deception in the Middle East continues to pour in. Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs (littlegreenfootballs.com) calls it "fauxtography." One of Mr. Hajj's photos was an iconic image of a dusty dead child with a clean blue pacifier clipped to his shirt, paraded by a corpse handler at the site of an Israeli airstrike in Qana, Lebanon. Mainstream journalists have sneered at bloggers' suspicions, first raised at EU Referendum (eureferendum.blogspot.com), that some of the gruesome photos from that scene may have been staged. The Washington Post's photographer Michael Robinson-Chavez, who was at Qana, huffed: "Everyone was dead, many of them children. Nothing was set up." But last week, a German television station aired damning video footage from the scene showing a lead propaganda director (dubbed the "Green Helmet Guy") positioning a young boy's corpse, yanking it from an ambulance, placing it on two different stretchers for the cameras and pushing aside bystanders for clearer shots. This Lebanese version of horror film director Wes Craven was identified by the Associated Press in a softball profile as "Salam Daher," who told the reporter, "I am just a civil defense worker. I have done this job all my life." To clear-eyed readers, that's an inculpatory, not an exculpatory, statement. How many more "jobs" has Mr. Daher overseen? And how many more such media stage managers are out there?
