In this first of the two sequences, we see a shot by Reuters and taken by Adnan Hajj, timed at 2:21 pm. It has the caption:

After all, the Hajj pictures were doctored, it seems, in such an amateurish way that Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs, who has been at war with Reuter’s for some time, was only one of several people to notice this at once. Any experienced editor ought to have done so and vetoed the pictures, preferably starting an internal enquiry.

Given the long-standing accusations about Reuter’s bias in the Middle East, we hope that a general sorting out will take place.

I hope so too, however I'm not holding my breath.

We may so hope, but my guess is that it will take the firing of more than only one photographer to clear out the propagandists. Frankly I suspect that Reuters won't even miss a beat in this relentless drum show.

The sorting out is going to be much harder since Reuters has "deleted" the 920 photos he had sold them.

Reuters wants to bury this misdeed, not make amends for it.

The girls arm seems to hang strangely for someone dead with or without rigor mortis.
