Subject: [neah] Carvalho apologized on CNN Manipulating Images
Hello,
I wanted to inform you on the issue of CNN using
1991 footage.

Campinas - Brazil
wrote: "I sincerely apologize for this uncertain information;
unfortunately I can't prove the information contained in my last
post; IT'S ONLY A CONJECTURE, THAT THOSE IMAGES OF PALESTINIANS
CELEBRATING IS FALSE. I bought the idea myself, and reproduced it for
you because of the importance of it, in the case it was to be
confirmed."
I wish he had informed us in person. This article
caused our
website to crash several times during the weekend.
Our server got
up to 4 hits per second.
After CounterPuncher took this issue seriously, it
appeared on their
front page: http://www.counterpunch.org/ This
article was taken of
their web site.
It was also published on our website:
http://www.indymedia.org.ilarticle/6946
After searching for information on the issue of CNN
using 1991
footage of celebrating Palestinians. I finally found
an email by
Marcio A. V. Carvalho. This email was sent to the
soc.culture.polish Newsgroup.
Have a happy new year,
Guy

major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
