Kudos to bionic and MoFo for first disclosing the truth.
I'd wager that nobody is faster commenting/posting media pix than right here at MP.net.

Thanks He!

Its cool to see this making it in the big News <- i love that smiley

Would have been nice if they credit MP.net for discovering this fake.
Also i feel bad for the photoshopper who spend all the day retouching the picture only to get busted in a few seconds

greets

If you only knew how many people globally link into the Daily Pix as their military current events source daily.
During the Lebanon war we had sonething like 30K hits each day. This thread alone has over 25K hits right now.

When things get hot in the world people come here for info, but don't look for credit.
Images are hotlinked throughout the spectrum, from Fresh.co to the Ir_n Defense Forum.
Some of you oldtimers might remember the latter.

[Greg27]

This is what AP had to say about it, after the "breaking news they put out"

Some media outlets used the photo Wednesday, but not The Associated Press

Funny, because the doctored photo I got this morning was from AP. Blatant lie, no?

The funny thing is have you looked at

http://littlegreenfootballs.com/arti...ly_Credits_LGF
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/arti...y_Vote_for_LGF
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/arti..._vs._Photoshop
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/arti...New_York_Times
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/arti...Missile_Launch

They are claiming a credit to be the original source who spotted the fake first. They even forced the NY Times, Washington Post to credit them in their articles. Maybe someone should correct littlegreenfootballs and point them to the original source

I knew this link, but tahnk you very much anyway!



Yes, you're right! And the original creator was José Millan-Astray, which was a great soldier but a poor intellectual as he show it in Salamanca.

Dear Member,

I believe his massive crippling wounds effected his emotional health. But you have to give unbelievable credit to that professor who stood up to him at Salamanca during the first months of the civil war which sent Astray into that phobia of yelling and screaming. It is easy to talk about courage when you have the support of your friends and mates around you. But all alone in that crowd when that professor spoke is true courage.
