Came across this link while browsing the net.
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/webl...om_Beirut&only Im not having ago at any parts if the media in particular, but I have posted it as an example to show that sometimes, the media is just as susceptible as mainstream companies to altering their product, or bending the truth to chase the almighty dollar.

It was not the media as such, it was the guy who took the photo that did the doctoring of it, he has sold plenty of images in the past to the media so there was no need to suspect anything amiss in a rush to publish the story.
He has now been blacklisted and will not being selling many photos any more.

all media is the same, have a look at the company that used Paris hilton's double in photoshoots to show her doing all this crap she didnt do, i laughed.
Also look at all the stuff concerning mel gibson, they dont tell you that infact his program was cancelled because the company hadnt seen a script in over 2yrs, and that it was infact cancelled before his jewish remarks came to light.

CBS had Prescott Bush (George W's grandad), as a director and was allededgly used to manipulate the behind the scenes activities of the US government about what the public was and wasnt to see.
