As if they’ll ever admit that they fake some of their photos.

“I hope that other news organizations will investigate this to find out whether or not the photo was staged.”

I doubt they care.

That’s a good one.

How’d that fake cannister seen smoking in the photo get 150 ft inside Mexico? Sure are lots of cameras around at just the right place and time. But why would The Washington Post publish a fake picture ? /$

Would the US fire tear gas INTO Mexico? It doesn’t make sense.

Saw another version, panoramic aspect ratio, showing a much wider view of the scene. Wish I knew where.

There’s also a photo purporting to show “Mama” holding the gas canister. Unbelievable that she would go back to retrieve it, for several reasons.

Was this the version you saw? Kid being grabbed by the hair and shoved to the "gas attack"?

Dan, you don't always deserve heat for stealing content and posting it on your blog. But today you do.

Where have you been? Not here at FR, I guess. There have been plenty of news organizations that have debunked this staged photo.

FReep more - steal content and blog less.

No, it was a very wide view - something like a 10:1 aspect ratio.

She’s not with the group....that’s why I think it’s staged.

"Did the Washington Post publish a staged photo..."

Silly question!

Everything the WaPOS has published since the 60's has been staged, faked, invented, garbage, Soviet-supporting, commie-supporting, and vile-smelling yellow journalism...

I’m sure they did, and I’m sure they used the word ‘migrant’ at least a dozen times.

I've seen several photos of this event. The end result is obvious.

This was a staged media event. I love this cartoon....

Reminds me a lot of that scene they staged in “Wag The Dog” with the young peasant girl (actress) fleeing a battle. The battle is being projected on a screen behind her, IIRC. It’s staged for poltical reasons.

Maybe Colin Kaepernick joined the Border Patrol since he can't get honest employment elsewhere.

Almost all of the early photos and videos of the “Caravan” were staged or photoshopped. Not sure why it's taken people so long to figure it out.

The logistics do not make sense, either. It is over 4,500 kilometers from Honduras to the U.S. and the average person cannot walk more than five kilometers a day comfortably. in thirty days, that's only 1,500 kilometers.

SO how did the Caravan get to the U.S. border so fast?
