IT'S NOT JUST REUTERS' PHOTOS

IT'S OTHER PHOTOS AND IT'S REUTERS' TEXT. AS JAMES TARANTO OF THE WSJ POINTS OUT:

The blog Drinking From Home notes a Reuters photo and an Associated Press photo that both show the same woman, whose home (an apartment according to Reuters, a house according to AP) Israel supposedly has just destroyed. The Reuters photo is dated July 22, while the AP one is dated Aug. 5--two weeks apart....

Anti-Israel editorializing can be found in Reuters' text as well, as in this Beirut dispatch by Alaa Shahine:

Israel's definition of Hizbollah targets has included more than 70 bridges, as well as ports, airports, radar stations, television and telephone masts, factories, farms and countless homes pummelled into ruin by 26 days of bombing across Lebanon.

Nor is this only a Reuters problem. YnetNews points to an especially blatant example from the Guardian (second item):

An article in the London-based Guardian, entitled "Militants merge with mainstream," argues that Hizbullah has gained widespread, cross-religious support in the Arab world, and uses terms such as "the Qana massacre" to explain the apparent newfound unity. . . .

The article was co-written by Issandr el-Amrani, a freelance journalist in Egypt who referred to Hizbullah as "Lebanese resistance fighters" on his personal blog and who describes reports of Hizbullah members operating out of civilian areas as "Israeli lies." (Correction: The "Israeli lies" comment comes from another contributor to el-Amrani's blog.)
