Great Moments in Journaljizzm, a Never-Ending Series

From the Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler:
Earlier, when the news broke about an al-Roto-Reuters armored car sexed-up Land Rover allegedly being hit by two IDF missiles, His Majesty hadn’t seen the pictures yet and could thus only offer the following advice: Playing war tourist in an armored car in the middle of a firefight at night isn’t the most brilliant thing you can do, so tough shit.

Now, however, we’ve seen the pictures, as have at least two other people with a lot of knowledge in such things, and the verdict is clear, to us at least:

Yet another Pallywood/al-Roto-Reuters Production™.

Whattasurprise
.


You’ll notice the obvious “splatter pattern” from wet concrete where the “missile” supposedly hit the roof of the vehicle. (We’ve slung a bit of concrete in our day and we’re pretty sure we know it when we see it.)


Here’s a picture of the same “missile strike” after the vehicle had been towed somewhere. You’ll notice that the “splatter pattern” is now mostly covered in red dust. That, our good readers, is what happens when you tow a vehicle, that has wet concrete on it, through the shit-strewn streets of the Middle East and kick up the reddish dust— It tends to stick to said wet concrete.



My comment: If that's a missile strike, I'm a Dunkin Donut. Just how stupid do these people think we are and ... equally important, how stupid is the MSM for pushing this crap?

How long ago was it that the media was positively proud of its scepticism? "If your mother says she loves you, check it out" was the mantra. This kind of reporting is worse than lame, it's moronic.
