TV4 and the Salvation Army

"Cold facts" on Swedish TV4 will send a program on The Salvation Army view on homosexuality (see earlier articles on this blog).

Cold Facts has released a trailer promoting the program about the Salvation Army, to be broadcast on Sunday. It is a phenomenally poor introduction to the program.
-It opens with a lie that homosexuals can not receive help from the Salvation Army.
-It follows with a priest from another denomination in Malawi saying something unfavorable about homosexuals.
-It ends with someone being excluded from a SA hall because they were a non-member. The photo is not taken from a Salvation Army site but instead from a completely different location.

It appears that the Cold Facts (production team) did not find sufficient sensational revelations about the Salvation Army. As a consequence they therefore created a false picture of the Salvation Army and then point to the photo. Why does one (they) insinuate that images from very a different context are about the Salvation Army?
