Next time you read yet another Mail "expose" of horrid foreigners plotting to kill us all in our beds and take it seriously, you might like to ponder the following tale of how their ever-reliable investigative newshounds managed to mistake a clip from a mainstream video game for "Al Qaida plans to devastate the US"

Amateurs doesn't even begin to cover it.

Ooops.

Not like the Daily Mail to overreact with a sensationalist headline without checking the facts.

Oh, wait.
