While the photo could be a fake, there is enough ancient legend, lore and biblical history recording giants. The Book of Enoch, not just the Koran, records giants and a resulting rebellion against God by the Watchers whom He ( God ) made. They got tired of watching the beautiful women and decided to take wives for themselves... even though it was forbidden.
This resulted in a Children of supernatural abilities, size and strength, whom best to my knowedgle, as the legend would have it, God had to destory in the great flood because of their outright rebellion and the utter distruction they levied upon mankind. Not that mankind was much better themselves...
It would behoove mankind to read ancient history, and the lost books of the bible often condemned by church organizations. While part may not be true, part is true and could very well explain some of what we see in these excavations...
The United States it'self contains a hidden and unspoken history, that is just now after 300 years starting to be acknowledged by such instituions as national geographic, ABC News, Rueters News reports, and other accredited Media and Universities. Not that you can believe them either half the time!!! ;)
My point is yes, if this were a " real " giant skeleton, the news media could, can, and does keep the majority of people in the dark depending upon who the information benefits... Anyone who cannot wrap their head around that idea is very nieve!
They have found Ancent horses, elephants and yes, independant expeditions have found or claim to have found, Giants in America!
When I find an article posted by a University or reputable organization I'll post it...

... AND... we see more evidence that Mormonism is batshit crazy, in a likeable sort of way.
