The Mainstream Media these days is sick, it's not that the Media have caught a recent disease, as a matter of fact the media have been always sick! but it is now that we became able (thanks to the internet) to detect and quickly expose the many bloopers, bias, news omission and news manipulation the mainstream media does.
Through many of our future articles and analysis, we'll try to expose this behavior.
In this article you'll see an example of how unprofessional the mainstream media can be.
The Media in the box of accusation today are:Periodistas Asociados de Televisión (PAT) - BoliviaTVN24 - Polish TV stationBNR - Dutch radio stationTheir unprofessional mistake:It seems that many media outlets received photos by email, these photos are supposed to be taken by a passenger of Air France Airbus A330 flight 447 that crashed in June 1 2009.
The photos were in fact taken from the television series "Lost." and sent to many media outlets as images found in a Casio Z750 digital camera, retrieved after the disaster.
Easy to expose:But these photos were easy to expose as fake due to several reasons:
- It is day time in these photos, whereas the Airbus A330 crash occurred in the middle of the night.
- One of the photos contain the face of actress Evangeline Lilly, who plays the character Kate on “Lost.”
- Illogical, how can a passenger in a depressurized plane be able to stand to take these pictures, and doesn't he have something more important to do? and If a blast have split the plane wouldn't it be strong enough to knock out all the passengers that happen to be in a pressurized environment ??
The footage:
Who might be behind the fake photos sent to hundreds of media outlets around the world ?We only have 4 possibilities for this question
1st- A prankster, and there are many!!!
2nd- Someone from Airbus or Air france, because if the media thinks this is a terror attack it would be much better for these companies than to admit a problem in their planes and eventually have to compensate victims or fix the planes already sold.
3rd- A shareholder or a group of shareholders in Airbus or Air france that doesn't want the shares to drop and thus blaming the terrorists for the accident could save millions of dollars.
4th- An organization, country or entity that want to recall the war on terror or to finger point a certain population around the world.
In our ranking of media outlets these medias will get a -5 on their score, the low penalty is due to the fact that they didn't have the intentions to manipulate the public and it was a simple unprofessional mistake.
