This article appears on the wireservices (I found it through a news.google.com news search). Makes it real easy to see the political identity of the newspapers that chose to run this. Don't even have the strength to write their own editorials.
Here are the crosslinks:
Daily Mirror photos officially fake
(Daily Mirror Editor) Piers Morgan's statement in full (regarding publication of fake POW photos)
But these photographs were just one piece of evidence about one incident. There is, of course, a much bigger issue here that we make no apology for highlighting - which is that the pictures accurately illustrated the reality about the appalling conduct of some British troops.
See any reference in the above idiotorial that the editor of the DM concedes that even if they ARE fakes they still hold some merit?
