			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week, <a href="http://www.israellycool.com/2008/11/20/bad-words/" target="_blank">I pointed out</a> a misleading caption that suggested that the graffiti shown in the accompanying picture were &#8220;bad words&#8221;, whereas they were actually biblical verses. <em>Israellycool </em>reader <a href="http://www.israellycool.com/2008/11/20/bad-words/#IDComment11455906" target="_blank">Seth</a> took the initiative to point this out to Getty Images in an email:</p>
<blockquote><p>I have stumbled across the following image and there is a major issue with the description.<br />
http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Detail.aspx?axd&#8230;<br />
Go to that link, the comment says &#8220;Jewish settlers scrawled bad words on the walls of a mosque&#8230; The settlers scrawled &#8216;Mohammed is a pig&#8217; and &#8216;Death to the Arabs&#8217; on the front of a mosque&#8221;<br />
Clearly, your Hebrew is extremely rusty, because what is written on the wall is actually a quote from the Jewish Bible, aka the Tanach. Please update this on your website. As a trusted media outlet you should maintain a higher level of integrity. Please respond to this with your answer so I know it was received. I sure hope this was a mistake and not intentional. Pleaser note that I am NOT saying what happened is okay at all, in fact I condemn it, however you still have the responsibility to accurately report on the situation.</p></blockquote>
<p>Seth reports he received the <a href="http://www.israellycool.com/2008/11/20/bad-words/#IDComment11758561" target="_blank">following response</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hello</p>
<p>Thank you for your recent email. We are correcting our  captioning for the images in question.</p>
<p>Thanks again,</p>
<p>Vincent  Formanek<br />
Getty Images<br />
1-800-IMAGERY</p>
<p>vincent.formanek@gettyimages.com</p></blockquote>
<p>Seth posted this comment 7 hours ago, which means Getty Images has had over 7 hours to correct the caption. Yet as of the time of this post, the misleading caption <a href="http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Detail.aspx?axd=DetailPaging.Generic|1&amp;axs=0|83762293,83762260,83762230,83762226|0&amp;id=83762260" target="_blank">remains</a>.</p>
<p>I wouldn&#8217;t have thought correcting a caption would be such a time consuming process.</p>
<p>Then again, I wouldn&#8217;t have thought the media&#8217;s job was to report events any which way they like.</p>
