Reuters was caught in another photo pas today, when it revealed pics used in a report on Russia's flag-planting at the North Pole last week were actually lifted frames from the 1997 blockbuster Titanic. An image captioned with descriptions of Russian submersibles on an Arctic seabed was actually a still from footage taken at the North Atlantic, the Guardian reports.
The mistake came to light after a 13-year old Finnish boy told his local newspaper of the photos' striking resemblance to the James Cameron's megahit. Reuters had recently promised to be more circumspect after printing a picture from last August's Israeli shelling of Lebanon that was embellished with extra smoke.
