In the New York Times, I found this headline:
U.S. Military Says Soldiers Fired on Civilians
but in the International Herald Tribune print edition it reads:
U.S. soldiers killed civilians, military admits
whereas the online edition has it:
U.S. military says soldiers fired on civilians, killing 3
And the author, Richard A. Oppel, Jr. was one and the same.
This called editing (or, how to slant the news).
Ever read a headline "Palestinian terrorist kills Jews"?
I've read this Palestinian attacks using construction vehicle and this, Jerusalem bulldozer 'terrorist' kills 3 in rampage and this is really close, Palestinian kills three in Jerusalem bulldozer rampage.
And I did see this recently, Jewish terrorist leaflet unearthed from 60 years ago.
Well, you get my point.
