The FACES of Coal Are Actually Clip Art

"The new coal industry front group 'FACES' has yet to come forward with a list of their members. Well, thanks to a few new-media gumshoes, including Appalachian Voices’ Jamie Goodman and our friends at DeSmogBlog, we’ve learned that not only is FACES hosted by a K-Street firm called Adfero, but all of the FACES of coal are actually ... iStockphotos. They couldn’t even get real photos of their supporters."
