What Liberal Media (Part XXXIV)?

Reuters, long famous for its ‘European’ stance on terrorism and Israel (i.e., it excuses the former and condemns the later), has admitted to doctoring a photo of the aftermath of bombing in Lebanon:

In the most recent in a series of online controversies to take on the mainstream media, a series of Web sites discredited a Reuters photograph of the fighting in Lebanon, forcing the news agency to issue an apology and remove the image from their archives.

The photograph by Adnan Hajj, which shows plumes of smoke rising from downtown Beirut after an IAF bombing, appeared to have been doctored to show more intense smoke and destruction over the city.

The Reuters news agency issued a statement acknowledging that “photo editing software was improperly used on this image. A corrected version will immediately follow this advisory. We are sorry for any inconvenience.”

“We are sorry for any inconvenience”??!!??

Hey, no trouble at all…can I interest you in a Joe Lieberman in blackface, by any chance?…
