The Jawa Report ^ | August 06, 2006

Posted on 08/06/2006 7:35:15 PM PDT by Halfmanhalfamazing

Another photo by Reuters photographer Adnan Hajj has been shown to be doctored. The photo, which proports to be of an Israeli F-16 firing missiles on Lebanon has been doctored to make the photo seem more sensational. Here is the original Reuters photo along with its caption.

There's some serious irony in that picture! :)

Yet another case of the smae thing from Powerline :

"I don't know if this has been brought to anyone's attention yet, but in a quick search of the authenticated Reuters photographs attributed to Adnan Hajj, I found the following two.

One is from July 24 of a bombed out area in Beirut, with a clearly identifiable building in a prominent part of the shot. The second is of the exact same area, same buildings, same condition, with a woman walking past "a building flattened during an overnight Israeli air raid on Beirut's suburbs August 5, 2006."

Below is the Hajj photo dated July 24:

The Reuters caption reads: "Journalists are shown by a Hizbollah guerrilla group the damage caused by Israeli attacks on a Hizbollah stronghold in southern Beirut, July 24 2006. (Adnan Hajj/Reuters)"

Below is the Hajj photo dated August 5:

The Reuters caption reads: "A Lebanese woman looks at the sky as she walks past a building flattened during an overnight Israeli air raid on Beirut's suburbs August 5, 2006. (Adnan Hajj/Reuters)"

The critique of this image misses one of the more obvious cues of fakery: perspective. If this is a genuine, undoctored photo, just how large are those trees behind the smoke?

There is something about this photo that has looked fake to me from the first time I saw it. I just can't put my finger on what it is though.

I always pictured Kerry as a 'catcher' not a 'pitcher'...

Remember, Cameras don't shoot bad pictures
Journalists do.

Time to 'ban' all journalists from the war zone. They just can't be responsible with their 'weapons'.

Reuters should be ashamed of themselves for doctoring photos.

Does anyone have any biographical information on Hajj? Obviously he's of Arabic origin, judging by his name. What is his country of origin? What is his current nationality? And most importantly, any ties to any terrorist groups?

Ethnic profiling? You bet!

I saw this photo and did a doubletake. Eerily reminiscent of an event I'll never forget of just a few short years ago. Second photo, anybody recognize it?
