LIberals With Too Much Time on Their Hands...
Watch for something about this to pass by you in the next few days, especially if you happen to - as I do - know a number of Liberals.
Basically, Jason Cherniak claims that some "unnamed source" noticed that a picture of a "shocked woman" on a Tory website and a porn website were identical. He then goes on to accuse the Conservatives of "stealing from porn sites."
There's only one problem - that's not what happened here at all. The picture in question wasn't "stolen" - it's a stock photo. I discovered this fact after roughly thirty seconds of research. I followed the following simple procedure:
1) Search Google for "stock photos."
2) Pick the first decent-looking site.
3) Search for "shocked woman."
Presto. Hopefully Mr. Cherniak will rapidly retract and apologize for his accusations. I'm only barely a Tory - but spreading lies around the internet about how the Conservatives are "stealing from porn sites" is decidedly uncool.
(Hat Tip - I forgot to mention that it was commenter CMJH over at Mr. Cherniak's site who suggested that this was possible).
