The Atlantic:
With Hurricane Sandy, the nation’s eyes are turning to its largest city. Photos of storms and flooding are popping up all over Twitter, and while many are real, some of them — especially the really eye-popping ones — are fake.
This post, which will be updated over the next couple of days, is an effort to sort the real from the unreal. It’s a photograph verification service, you might say, or a pictorial investigation bureau. If you see a picture that looks fishy, send it to me at alexis.madrigal[at]gmail.com. If you like this sort of thing, you should also visit istwitterwrong.tumblr.com, which is just cataloging the fakes.

With all the destruction and the poster post these fakes? What jerks!
Christ……not getting a lot of these through the UK media…..but that is bad….and saddening……we spent a lovely time in NYC a few years ago and judging from one (or maybe a couple of those “real” pics) i think the hotel got waxed 🙁 #chinupandbestrongUS
