authenticity

from here (thanks to @mikko for bringing the incident to my attention)

you might question the authenticity of the image, you may argue it looks faked, that no one would be so foolish, but i grabbed this screenshot from the following video that i found on this swedish news site



according to the news site there are humourous acronyms beyond what you can easily make out in the picture(s)/video.

OMG
WTF
STFU
PWN3D (the 3 looks more like a backwards E to my eye)
URANOOB (the first i can't make out, even in the picture @mikko tweeted)
LMAOROTF
KTHXBYE: P

*update: thanks to @Rob_OEM for pointing me towards the following image of an equivalent eyechart


*update: just to clear up any confusion, as @mikko rightly points out, the original gaffe was made by a norwegian news channel. the site i linked to above is a swedish site that was simply reporting on the gaffe. and thus ends (i hope) one of the longest secmeme posts ever.
