I have a question. Please respond.

Regarding this Newsweek hubbub: "The White House said Tuesday the United States' image abroad had suffered irreparable damage from a now-retracted Newsweek article alleging that American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay desecrated the Quran, the Muslim holy book."
(http://apnews.myway.com/article/20050517/D8A56AQ80.html)

Can someone please help answer these questions:
1) How has the US' image abroad suffered from the Newsweek article? (specifically the Newsweek article, as we're being told) - Vox

2) And when the fact that this did actually happen (and was probably SOP*) is made known to the sheep at large, what will it mean? How will they respond to Newsweek for actually lying to the masses by retracting as false a story that they at Newsweek know is true?

*SOP - Standard Operating Procedure
