This is truly embarrassing

One gets used to it from the BBC. One expects it from certain newspapers like the Independent. But, foolishly perhaps, I still think that the Times should have some semblance of accuracy in its reporting. Anyone who shares my illusions should read through the story on Michelle Malkin's blog.

I feel I ought to point out that the response she had from Gerard Baker, the US Editor of the Times, was prompt and honourable, though it did imply that the picture editing on that newspaper and its website is shoddy beyond belief.

Read on, however, through the list of headlines that seem to have condemned the marines well ahead of any inquiry. How are the mighty fallen.
