"The evidence speaks for itself..."

No, it doesn't. And it actually hurts the cause to go off half cocked.

I said the same thing about the New York Times "dead man" photo caption, which turned out to be a simple mistake. (And the paper itself actually had the correct caption.)

I'm the last person to defend these people. For instance:

About That Times “Missile” Photo Caption | Sweetness & Light

But getting carried away doesn't help.

And the gentleman at EU Referendum, Richard North, seems to be saying the same thing these days. (After having himself been slightly burned re the time stamps.)

Dude, the NY Times was never right on that picture. They called him a body the first time. Then injured.

He wasn't injured, he laid down there. Look at his hat tucked under his arm. How do you fall and get hurt and have your hat tuck up under your arm magically?

Oh, and by the way, those dudes in the pics set that fire. You need fire to get nice smokey pictures. Tire dumps work really well.
