I just don't get it

Read this.
("My friends know me and my ethics, and they have no doubt this was nothing more than a stupid mistake.")
Now read this.
("[S]ince January of this year, Mr. Detrich submitted 947 photographs for publication, of which 79 had been digitally altered.")
Don't you wish that just once someone on the way to being caught dead to rights on something like plagiarism or digitally altering news photos would just be honest and say something like "You got me. I did it because I wanted money and didn't think I would get caught." Really, when it's inevitable that everything is going to unravel, why dig yourself in deeper with a disingenuous, self-serving blog entry?

Check out the last shot here, where he inserted a basketball into a sports photo.

To Bill Clinton's credit, he did have the sense to abandon the "deny, deny, deny" strategy once he realized there was a blue dress.
