Richard Gage Goes With the Fatty Bin Laden Argument?

What's next, that Atta lived with a stripper and snorted coke? What kind of clueless morons does Gage have on his board that they chose to keep this ridiculous claim, debunked pretty well by their fellow truthers?

Hat Tip: Boloboffin at JREF.

Fat Bin Laden Caused By Differing Video Standards!

It's not often that I commend the Deniers for their debunking skills, but every now and then you come across people in this movement who are really interested in the truth, as compared to the "Truth". So it is today with the Muckraker report, which reveals that the "Fat Bin Laden" is an artifact of the different tape standards used in the USA and that used in much of the rest of the world.

Basically, the reason why Osama bin Laden looks fat in the video, and in some frames particularly fat, is because of the camera angle, shadowing and lighting, and the fact that the PAL to NTSC conversion squashed the vertical by 17 percent while the horizontal proportion remained the same as the original.

Of course, the fact that the confession video shows Bin Laden is going to cause quite a ruckus in the Denial movement.
