Pacifier

First of all please answer the question for yourself.
do you trust what is reported in the media, be it newspapers or TV?

I guess everyone heard something about the Oscar sppech of michael moore. It was not liked by everyone, some people booed at the speech. But how many?
This sites compares the broadcast of CNN and ABC: http://www.lisarein.com/michaelmoore...recompare.html
as you can hear the boos on CNN are much louder, some sound like they were some sort of looped.

As for pictures, this was printed by the Los Angeles Times:

but it was photoshopped to make it look better, to make it look like the the iraqi is looking toward the soldier who gives him orders.

the two original pictures:

Now, how much can do you trust the media?
