Paramedics show the dead body of a baby to the press after Israeli bombing of Qana, Lebanon, 30 July
Why Jack Burton calls "these people"--- ORCS! From LGF:
"The Qana photographs are some of the most gut-wrenching, heart-breaking images you could ever imagine. And that’s why it’s important to recognize that there are people with souls so dead and intentions so evil that they will cynically use these photographs to manipulate your feelings."
So why did these photographs not get pass the editors desk? "Because,"Charles Johnson says, "it really wrecks the suspension of disbelief that actors need to convince the audience. It's like seeing the scaffolds and lights and fake landscapes behind the scenes at a theater, in the middle of a performance."
The EU Referendum nails it:"This is the omerta of the media mafia." With these, there must be hundreds if not thousands of unused shots, the sum of which would readily confirm that which we have long argued, with the limited, poor quality material available to us. But it is highly significant that, through the height of the controversy and subsequently, not one of the photographers who had been at Qana on 30 July – or any of their editors – broke ranks.
