B&W Film the standard for Newspaper work until sometime in the 80's was
the raw of it's day. Here's the thing, either you trust your trained
witnesses, (reporters and photographers), or you fire them and get
someone you can trust. It wouldn't be so bad if the fakes were clever
and hard to spot, but most were obvious fakes. That speaks almost as
poorly for the intelligence of the editorial staff as it does for the
honesty of the reporting staff. As has been pointed out there are a
number of ways to spoof the EXIF data in a jpeg file, and a talented
Photoshop user can produce nearly undetectable revisions. I read in the
comments of that article that some Nikon Cameras embed a checksum in
each picture file, in an attempt to thwart modifications, but hell once
you know how any number id generated, it's just as easy to replace that
as well.

This strikes me as a decision that was made by upper management
people, if you know what I mean.
