Yeah, the Daily Mail is tepid bin juice. It's extremely likely they fell for something they found online rather than them being the originators of the images -- they're still scum, but they aren't spending enough time or money on their "content" to be doing anything that sophisticated. All of this to say, pointing out the Daily Mail's crap doesn't really indict "the media" as a whole. I don't think that one story is what American big general guy is referring to as "reports". Russia definitely does look bad though, and that is no accident -- but I don't think it's the fake stories doing the heavy lifting.
