I know this post was kinda random, but the links are to some good tutorials and will provide some solid tips for evaluating photo's. Fake photo's, even produced by news organizations are pretty common. The NYT's has been caught publishing fake photo's.

Second to last link looks like the best and first link is pretty good.

Especially with well known fakes like Lee Harvey Oswald.

Why?
There are theories as to why.
Conspiracy Theories. ;);)
