Chinese bloggers accused broadcaster News Broadcast (Xinwen lianbo) on Chinese Central Television for trying to pass off footage from the movie Top Gun (right) as footage from a recent air force training drill that took place on January 23 (left). The news segment was supposedly reporting that a target was hit by an air-to-air missile, causing the pictured explosion. As one may notice from looking at the juxtaposition of the screen captures, both scenes look nearly identical, right down to the pattern of the fire and placement of debris.
