I'd put money on this though, if you go out in the streets and ask random people "How do you know Osama Bin Laden is dead?" I bet at least 75%
of people would say one of two things...
1) Cuz i saw it on the news
2) I saw the picture of him dead
Well I'd say around 95% -100% of people would say "because I saw it on the news" really. After all, it was a rather big story at the time.
In regards to people believing he was dead because of the picture - Well, I'd say the percentage was very low to be honest. Sure it was paraded and
accepted
by some at first but even then a huge amount of people, as far as I was able to tell, was already skeptical because the picture just
looks incredibly fake. And then it was without doubt shown to be fake and the picture was never shown in public again really, instead it was largely
forgotten. The only time we were to see it again was when we was told it was a fake in fact.
