Morley provides the Washington Post spin on this.
---Confronted with photographs of dead children, Israeli Insider's Korvet insisted they must be something else: "The victims were non-residents who chose to shelter in the building that night," he writes. "They were 'too poor' to leave the down, one resident told CNN's [Jon] Wedeman. Who were these people?"
That question has been definitively answered in the mainstream press. Almost all of the victims belonged to two extended families, the Hashems and the Shalhoubs, who lived in the area, according to the independent accounts of The Washington Post's Anthony Shadid and the Daily Star's Nicholas Blanford.---
So where were the grieving relatives pushing in on all sides of the rescue site, Morley? It appeared from the photographs that the only ones there were "reporters", "photographers", and "rescuers". Where were the grieving extended families, numnuts?
In other words, we're not qualified to analyze the news, like he is.

"underscores how the Internet can misinform (an old story)", Well I guess they should know if anyone does, since they do it constantly.
Yes, we do. Explosives in the building.
