The Propaganda Reuters Does Every Day

Perhaps it is nitpicking, but in light of their admission of photoshopping it is important to remember that Reuters does much more subtle agit-prop every day.

Notice for instance the photo they paired with this article:

Iraqi members of the Shi'ite's Mehdi army march over U.S. flag painted on the road in Baghdad's Sadr City August 5, 2006. Thousands of members of the Shi'ite's Mehdi army militia massed in the Sadr City to mark the second anniversary of their anti-U.S. revolt and to show solidarity with Lebanese people.

US troop reinforcements arrive in Baghdad

By Ross Colvin

Aug 6, 2006

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - U.S. troop reinforcements have begun arriving in Baghdad to help Iraqi forces try to regain control of the streets amid worsening sectarian violence that U.S. generals fear is pushing the country toward civil war…

And they do this kind of subliminal propaganda day in and day out.

    Well, if I’m supposed to be outraged to see a platoon of scrubs stomping on my flag, they screwed it up. The ‘flag’ they’re desecrating has 17 stripes, 43 stars, and the top and bottom stripes are white instead of red. So whose flag is that? Not mine! A for effort, butt-heads!

    Judging from the photo, they also march like a bunch of girl guides.

    Clarice makes an interesting observation in her article at americanthinker.com

    “But USA Today which consistently refers to Lebanese killed when Israel aims at military targets are routinely called ‘civilians’ calls the Israeli dead ‘people.’”

    The interesting fallout of this is that if someone in the future does research on Israeli civilians killed in this war, they will come up empty in the USA Today archives. They will have to know to search for “Israeli people” killed in order to find the information they seek. So it seems that what they are really doing is thinking a few moves ahead and trying to influence how the war will be seen in the future by researchers.

    That’s what a year on the “Sheehan Hunger Strike Diet” will do for you.

    “Don’t you just love summer when the gals show off their belly buttons?”

    SC - I’m kind of a traditional guy. I think a woman’s belly button should be between her boobs and her hips. I think this woman is trying to be a living Picasso, but I was never a fan of impressionist art.

    Well Exeter the location of her boobs is still in question. I would say both boobs and belly button are south of the Y.
