The NYT's 'Dead Man Walking' (UPDATED)

Change font size:  A |  A

What is it about the inimitable paper of disrepute, the mighty New York Times, that makes it constitutionally unable to tell the truth?

In these troubled times of rabid Pallywood, the NYT publishes what appears to be a staged photograph of a 'Dead Man Walking' in Tyre, Lebanon. (NYT photo essay with audio here, although caption now changed, see update)

Have the left become so out of touch with reality in this war on terror that their unwarranted superciliousness and condescension overrides the most basic principals of journalism? Intentionally or not, they have become the driving force behind the propaganda machine of the mullahcracy of Iran in the West.

At this crucial time in history, when the world is at the brink of war with Islamofascism, nothing so illustrates the left's nihilism as does its stand against Israel.

UPDATE: Always good to know that we do make a difference after all. The NYT changes its photo caption, and issues a correction. John Hinderaker remains unimpressed.
