Dear Sir,
We, Anti-CNN.com and its volunteers, are a media-watch group dedicated to documenting the Western media’s bias and distortions. We are writing to question the credibility of New York Times (NYT) in its photojournalism on the tragic events that occurred recently in Xinjiang, China. Our protest concerns a photo slide of 8 pictures published in NYT on July 6, 2009 under the title “Deadly Riots in Urumqi.” http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2009/07/06/world/20090706-CHINA_index.html
The fifth picture of the slide showed a riot victim lying in a hospital bed, with the caption reading: "Uighurs injured at a hospital in the city during a media tour by the authorities on Monday." However, Anti-CNN.com has recognized from the picture that not only the victim's name as printed on the wall is of Han ethnicity but also his face is clearly Han-looking. In response to our questions, Reuters, the source of the NYT picture, asserted that the word "Uighurs" did not appear in their original caption. Reuters' editors further explained that it was beyond their control if NYT, as a Reuters’ client, made changes to the caption.http://bbs.m4.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=179267&
The fourth picture clearly showed police officers helping tow away damaged, blood-stained vehicles, where the NYT caption reads: “Police officers used fire hoses and batons to beat back rioters and detained Uighurs who appeared to be leading the protest, witnesses said.” Anti-CNN.com has identified the source picture from the AP photo depository, with the original caption as "A blood stained car damaged during protest in Urumqi, western China's ... ...". Apparently, in manipulating the caption, the NYT left readers with a strong suggestion that the blood stains were linked to the "crackdown of protests", alluding to "brutality" on the part of the Chinese police.http://bbs.m4.cn/thread-182133-1-1.html
NYT owes the public an explanation as to why its photo editor altered the captions in such a way to fuel the enmity between the Han and the Uighur ethnicities of China and to stigmatize the Chinese law enforcement. The caption manipulation has led the public to believe that NYT did so to deceive its readers. We therefore request that NYT publish this protest letter and withdraw or correct its captions. In light of the insults to the riot victims by NYT’s caption distortion, it is highly appropriate for NYT to apologize to the riot victims or issue a statement to that effect, in order to regain its credibility with its Chinese readers.
Sincerely
