The Magic Bullet Theory
This is, by far, my favorite news photo of the week. Agence France Presse (AFP) — known throughout the world for their unbiased, objective reporting, and unabashed loathing of George W. Bush — offered up this picture as evidence of the mayhem caused by careless American soldiers wilding their way through the current troop surge.
Still, one wonders how one of the world’s most respected news agencies could proffer such a blatant fabrication with the expectation that they wouldn’t be called out on it.
