A UC Berkeley journalism lecturer's 32-year-old photograph of future Democratic U.S. Senator and presidential candidate John Kerry has wound up in a forgery that suckered the New York Times.

Ken Light, head of the photojournalism program at UCB's Graduate School of Journalism, has found himself in the eye of a media and Internet storm after a clever forger inserted an image of Jane Fonda alongside his image of Kerry and posted the composite on the Internet.

I thought they were talking about this Photo:

What I really meant to say was 'I did not exhale'"

[GeronL]

It would have to be from one of the most leftist news sources in the country

"...Lincolnesque expression..."

Lincolnesque?! More like Gomer Pyle!

It wasn't that he had no comment, John Kerry couldn't comment. He was packing his face full with a sandwich.

Has anyone contacted the author of this piece to tell him he's incompetent, and missed the story he's trying to report? Then again, it's Berkeley and it may have been deliberate.

McCain: Testimony by Kerry and others before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee was "the most effective propaganda [my North Vietnamese captors] had to use against us."

I am laughing so hard. The media is too lazy to check sources and pics...and they blame others?

My compliments to our talented Registered.

[MissAmericanPie]

Talent will out.

In 1972, Fonda became the bete noir of the right

Notice that the Fonda bit didn't bother those Vietnam Vets who might have been liberals.
