Reuters has refed the photo. Here it is, alongside the faked version:
Beats me why a photographer or editor would risk his job over that, or how anyone that inept could have gotten the gig in the first place.

But I'll bet Paul Julius Reuter is spinning in his grave.

Related - I happened to see Monday's (7/31) front page of the Austin American-Statesman. There was yet another of Nassar Nassar's (AP) photos I hadn't seen before of green helmet guy carrying one of the often seen dead children (the one with the questionable bent arm) from Qana. Sorry, can't scan it and can't seem to find it on the web. Green helmet guy and Nassar must be joined at the hip. Wonder how much money exchanged hands.

I'm glad it's down, but I've got to get greedy and say I don't buy the 1408GMT on AUG 5 time. Maybe Aug 6 and they just made a typo, but my best guess is no way 2pm Aug 5.
Screw em all anyway. God'll kick their ass for us.

You gotta remember Rush refers to Reuters as Al Reuters, probably not by accident.

Now if they could just admit that 90% of their stories are doctored as well.

Yet, there are some here who continue to take the MSM at their word. Disgusting.

Here's the one they're going with as the corrected photo...I wonder how they'll spin this? The simple truth "we were had!" is probably beyond them.
Somewhat off-topic, Little Green Footballs had a run-in with Reuters, so they modified their site meter to record visits from Reuters... they had four online when I looked a few minutes ago.

This is the kind of fakery that can easily pass by the casual reader who reads only headlines, the lead paragraph and photo cutlines.
As it's said, find a cockroach in your cupboard and there's probably dozens more in hiding.

How much you want to bet that the black smoke coming from the roof top is a handful of tires set on fire, on purpose, in cahoots with our Paliwood photographer?
