Now, I'm wondering: has anyone had any experience with this website and can say with some certainty that they aren't blowing this out of proportion/otherwise distorting it?

The Mission statement of HonestReporting is to "make sure that Isreal is presented fairly and accurately." Which likely means "we want to be shown in a positive light."
considering the agenda based site, i would guess a 10% chance of it being a warranted claim.
wait to see if its mentioned on fox news, then its a 50/50 chance
The question is, is there a perfectly legitimate reason for that bar being there? Someone left a comment on that page that most vids from the white house have that bar on there, and if so, then they're not re-writing anything. Someone's just getting their panties in a bundle. And someone else also left a message pointing out the fact that it doesn't make any sense to doctor the video and then leave the uncropped version in plain view on the WH website.

Not a big surprise really.... Every media outlet, be it left or right rewrites the story's they report. Fox does this another station does that... It happens everywhere. No real surprise.
If it takes one new Tony Snow to counter one new Michael Moore, then that's what it takes.

You know I love the whole "biased website" argument.
It's funny to me that a REAL source (i.e. a CNN news program when I was arguing liberal bias in the media, or an NBC report when I was arguing that illegal immigrants have caused more deaths in one year than all the deaths of the Iraq war and 9/11 combined).... like the photojournalist who took the photos in this case.....
Isn't considered "accurate" any more, simply because the website that presents the very REAL data is open about wanting you to see a point of view.
It's like not learning math because you know that the teacher wants you to.
His facts are still right, but the presentation is "Biased."
so its true because you want it to be, yet when you dont want it to be true, the rules change and rationality dictates that a blatantly bias website cannot be trusted for accuracy. got it
so than you accept all of deano's links as the truth?
lizard men blowing up the wtc to control and microchip us?
perhaps if i post some 'factual' material from whiteymustdie.com you'll accept it without question?
what a fool you must be
but thats just it. they arent. only a fool trusts information based only on the fact that its from teh intranet. if its not a reputable source it all sounds like *fart* *fart* *crap* to me. am i irrationally sceptical?
I don't know. I use Wikipedia regularly for my information needs. There's a chance that whatever is written on there is crap, but I take it at face-value.
