Faux Press Conferences

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Monday, August 25. 2008 13:31
Eagle-eyed reader Gretsida spotted something curious in this Reuters photograph of a "peace activist" news conference. I've blown up and cropped a portion of the photo [terms; contact] to illustrate this interesting find:

You won't be hearing much through these microphones...


In all, of the 23 microphones shown in this particular photo-op, 10 to 12 of them are disconnected. Could it be that these microphones were placed on the stand to give this terrorist-supporting mob the airs of credibility?

And, if Reuters participated in this photo-op knowing full well of this manipulation, does that mean that Reuters is complicit in this fraud?

Stranger things have happened, I suppose.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Could they be wireless microphones?

*Wireless microphones: 1 2 3 4

I dunno - The two pins inside of the bottom of the mic on the left look exactly like what a microphone cord plugs into, rather than some kind of plug for a base station or charger.

Gretsida seems to know these types of devices, and says that these aren't wireless-capable microphones. I haven't got the foggiest, as I haven't worked with A/V equipment since around 1992 or so.

Not that it's changed all that much since then.. right? ;-)

Regards,
Brian

*wireless units have a "wireless" device at the bottom of the mic.

You know, I don't give a flying flip about these pallies whining and crying about pallies arrested and put in prison by Israel. How about releasing those kidnapped Israelis first!!!!!!!!!

How about stop killing people and you won't get arrested.

I agree Brian, despite the show of microphones, Reuters and MSM are in bed and complicit with terrorists. The fact that they are there instead of taking a stand against giving terrorists a voice speaks volumes.

But then, the US gives them money hand-over-fist. And this is how they behave? You can't make them buy civility, morality and decency.
