Looks like others stepped in and took care of your request, so I'll simply leave it at "someone at Fox was either in a hurry or just plain stupid, and someone else caught their error".
This is NOT the kind of error a reputable news agency makes (which involves taking a two-year-old stock photo out of the file instead of sending someone out to take a real-time picture).
I agree, PDiddie, that's why I was wanting to reassure myself that it wasn't yet another doctored up photo/internet hoax. The supposed satelite photos of the space shuttle breaking up over Texas comes to mind. They turned out to be doctored photos from Star Wars.
I traced back the link from where you posted the photo to the weblog and several other places people had copied it from but couldn't find a place of origin stating "I made this screen capture." since someone obviously took the time to edit it and draw the red circle around the buildings.
It just makes me a bit suspicious.... I'm cynical, so sue me.
First I've heard of this...
