Old, but still annoyed me to have to feast my eyes upon this deception on infowars.

Ok, so they say that apparently Rob Breakenridge was deceptive in comparing the WTC7 collapse to WTC3 and the church. Now they seem like they might make a tolerable article, until they get to the point of WTC3 in which they say WTC3 was only cut in half by the collapse then show Bill Baggarts famous photo, of before the second tower fell. Then they completely fail to mention the further damage WTC3 recieved after the second tower fell, namely this picture http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/photos/docs/wtc3_7064.jpg!!

They just say wtc3 was sliced in half and leave it at that.

Unfortunately I realise this is nothing new coming from infowars, but since both Pictures are reasonably well known, I would have thought even the brightest of truthers (The ones that can tie their shoelace) might pick up on it.

WTC 3 was less than half the height of WTC 7 and yet WTC 7 experienced a full implosion-style collapse within 7 seconds, while the foundation of WTC 3 survived.
I'm not sure what the name of that fallacy is, but it's a classic piece of deception; it doesn't state that WTC7's foundation didn't survive, nor that WTC3 didn't collapse.

Infowars said:
This is probably news to Breakenridge, but NIST itself has completely failed to address the cause of WTC 7’s collapse and has not yet issued a final report on the reason for the 7-second implosion. In addition, NIST itself admits that the debris from the twin towers was not the cause of the collapse.

The name of that fallacy is "Lying", I think. Last time I looked, the NIST WTC7 report had been published. The link to NIST's admission doesn't appear to point to a specific reference, but the presence of the acronym FEMA in the link rather suggests that it doesn't relate to anything said by NIST.

But, hey, lying is the only way to seek the truth, right?
