How many here discount a news article because it was in the NY Times? Or The Washington Post?

You're full of shit if you think I've ever discounted a news article only because of where it appeared. BTW, the Wa Post is much fairer IMO than the NYT.

The NYT is quite slanted, but its main journalistic sin is what it leaves out, not what it includes. Even it normally doesn't make things up out of whole cloth.

I don't know of anything newsmax has ever made up as you claim. Admittedly I don't read it often. I expect you don't know of anything newsmax has made up either. But being a liberal, you're used to making charges you have no support for.

As for dummied up photos, that is common throughout the media - there were a lot of examples of fake and misleading photos from Lebanon that appeared in national newsmagazines in recent months, for example.
