Snapped Shot

Always Watching the All-Seeing Eye

 

Morning edition

It's that time again! The wires are mostly buzzing with news about the latest thwarted terrorist plot.

LGF has found a great article on photojournalism ethics that outlines the long history of photographic manipulation. Dan Riehl at Newsbusters has provided some historical information on manipulation of the press, bringing back memories of the United Nations' terrorist taxi. It would also appear that L. Brent Bozell has weighed in on the fauxtography scandal. And finally, to keep us laughing, it seems that Kos is working on drumming up a fauxtography scandal of his own.

Looking over the photo wires, it appears that we've been treated to a large number of rubble and devastation shots overnight. I'll be posting in-depth about that shortly, so stay tuned!

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.
