Bad:

http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-08-07T144605Z_01_L06301298_RTRUKOC_0_US-MIDEAST-REUTERS.xml&src=080706_1234_FEATURES_doctored_photos%3A_reuters_response

And it was not just the image pictured:

Quote: ... a photograph of an Israeli F-16 fighter over Nabatiyeh, southern Lebanon and dated Aug 2, had also been doctored to increase the number of flares dropped by the plane from one to three.

One would have thought there was plenty evidence of what Israel was/is doing without "sexing up" that already there!

I note the predictable effusions by bloggers viz. "al-Reuters", "who paid him in Iran?" etc.
