Who'd a thunk it? The sainted 4th estate can be fooled with a dang GI Joe doll.
A picture of an "abducted" U.S. soldier in Iraq appeared on a Web site on Tuesday, but suspicion grew it was a hoax after a U.S. toy maker said it appeared to show a model soldier made by the company.

But Liam Cusack, marketing coordinator for California-based Dragon Models USA, said the picture appeared to show a special forces operative figure the company had made for collectors.
Oops. And they wonder why the public has such a low perception of the media.
