Maybe they had a hole in the paper and needed some quick content! :)

This charge is nothing new and I am surprised the Guardian is making 
such an item of it. In at least two recent publications, one The 
Endurance,  by Caroline Alexander and the other a very large compendium 
of Hurley's work the fake of the photo in question is discussed.
