Amusing bit of news from Finnish tabloid Iltasanomat today.

Apparently Reuters is using a screenshot from the movie Titanic as one of the press photos in a news item about the Russian sub planting a flag beneath the North Pole.

Here's a comparison shot from Iltasanomat with an actual screenshot from Titanic on the bottom:

The picture is used in this article as picture 2: Russian Sub Plants Flag Under North Pole.

Iltasanomat reports also, that Reuters was very surprised about this and are looking into this. Here's a screenshot of the picture at Reuters.com in case they take it down: click for picture
