I'm remembering a similar "hoax" about Canada arresting Bushie for War
Crimes.
Al the it's a hoax, it's a hoax shouting dround out the news that Bush
really was charged in a warcrimes suit elsewhere in canada.
Now whenever someone says something about the "marching orders" the
media has been given, some sucker will holler it's a hoax, it's a hoax,
practically on cue.
Instead, they should holler it's a setup, it's a setup.
Another instance I can think of where they pulled an intentional "hoax"
routine was when one of the Warmonger generals supposedly apolognzed for
blowing up an Iraqi Wedding party.
The only part that was hoaxed was the guy's apology.
But the buzz became that the entire incident was a hoax, to un-happen
the wedding party mass murder that WAS real.
Then there's the spate of cropped enlargements being passed off as
"original photos" such as the Luton Still.
First they enlarge a picture until it's all bloomy and impressionistic
looking. Then they claim that the picture looks "fake." This is easy,
cos all enlargements look cartoonie once made bigger than their
resolution can support.
Then the event, not merely the picture, is denounced as fake.
