Thanks to Vlad for this one, great catch.
VLAD: Yesterday we posted one of many Daily Mail stories, this one about a man who was stopped on a train because he had an umbrella that had a handle that looked like a Samurai sword.
The article is here and the main photo from the article is below:
An astute reader of this website, KrayThaTruth, had read the story when it was first published and made a comment about the photo, which he screen grabbed. His comment was not published. But he noticed that when he went back to the story later, they had zoomed in on the photo to crop out the top.
TT: This changes the entire narrative of the story, it’s not an issue of unfair treatment of a poor muslim with an umbrella, but of a man seen with something looking dangerously like a sword handle and sporting an ISlamic State insignia. This is pure malfeasance on the Daily Mail’s part.
I agree with Vlad, this is something very similar to “Clock Boy”.
