UK Times Misleads, Sun-Times Falls In Line

A few days ago, Michelle Malkin had a post regarding willfully misleading photos that were juxtaposed with a UK Times article about the incident at Haditha. Although they subsequently admitted their error (scroll for updates), well...you know what they say about a lie: it's traveled halfway around the world before the truth gets up in the morning.

Witness the Jack Higgins cartoon from todays Sun-Times:


Look familiar?

If you compare the cartoon with the second photo in Malkin's post, you will see that Higgins clearly modeled his drawing after that photo. The one problem being, as Malkin clearly outlines, that the photo is of fishermen murdered by terrorists back in November. They have nothing to do with the Haditha incident.

There may well be Marines found guilty in this matter. Can we at least have the decency to allow the investigation to continue before we have public hangings in our media outlets?
