Image Is Everything

Here's an interesting screenshot comparison from the front page of the Washington Post.

The captures are of the exact same stories, one story by Dana Hedgpeth and Neil Irwin, the other story by Jim VandeHei and Paul Blustein. The screen captures were made just minutes apart.


 

The image of the left appears to an innocent mistake where the wrong image and associated byline were called up. The image on the right was intended to go with the Dubai Ports World stories.

The same two stories are present in each screen capture, but the startling contrast in images between a violent riot and a comparatively sedate seaport conjure up far different gut emotions about the "uproar," don't they?

...And My Other Brother Darryl



This is the face of the professional media. Michelle Malkin has the video of an utterly pathetic attempt to mock a near tragedy.

I can only imagine Milbank enjoys popping balloons near Jim Brady and making gargling noises near the Kopechne family.
