From BBC Verify: Fact-checking RFK Jr's views on health policy Some of Kennedy’s own stated aims for government are bound up with misinformation - and many medical experts have expressed serious concerns about his nomination. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Latest from BBC Verify: @elonmusk suggested last month at Donald Trump’s rally in NY that it would be possible to cut “at least $2 trillion” from US government spending by eradicating “waste”. But how realistic is that proposal? @BenChu_ reports: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
It's important NOT to overstate the role of Russian interference efforts on social media on the US election. We've tracked two Russia-linked operations for months - and they've been putting out lots of content. But most of their fakes consistently failed to get traction...
Dozens of accounts in the Russian network that have been posting fake videos impersonating the FBI and international media have now been suspended on X. This follows repeated FBI warnings about fake videos. The network is persistent though so we might see more of these spring up.
Thx for this. The “where to vote” panel is triggering for some specific searches bc Harris is also the name of a county in TX. Happens for “Vance” too bc it’s also the name of a county. Fix is coming. Note very few people actually search for voting places this way.
The FBI has issued another warning about fake videos that aim to cast doubt on the US election. BBC Verify found the clips match videos produced by a wider Russia-based network that has produced hundreds in recent months. Read more from @O_Rob1nson: bbc.co.uk/news/live/czxr…
Now in DC investigating everything social media - disinformation, algorithms, hate - including on election night. Latest interrogating my undecided undercover voter’s feeds & contrast between what she’s pushed on X and TikTok, from some unfounded voter fraud claims to montages.
The 300+ fake videos @Shayan86 and I have analysed with colleagues from Logically impersonate content from US government agencies, organisations like @bellingcat and also more than 50 news media – including the BBC, France 24 and Fox News.
The FBI has warned of two fake videos circulating online aimed at casting doubt around the US presidential election. These videos are v likely part of a wider Russian campaign @Shayan86 and I’ve been tracking for a long time 🧵 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
BBC Verify has found clear clues, including false addresses and a stock image, that indicate a viral video of Haitian men voting “multiple times” using multiple IDs in Georgia is fake. US intelligence agencies say "Russian influence actors" are behind it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Fact-checking @elonmusk's claim about Democrats importing voters: BBC Verify, working with data firm @nodexl, analysed all of Musk's posts - over 8,000 - since endorsing Trump. Reporting from @J_A_Horton: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Pennsylvania is one of the crucial swing states in this election and where people are claiming voter fraud is rife. BBC Verify has examined the viral allegations online about non-citizens voting and more. bbc.co.uk/news/videos/c9…
A similar fake video went viral last week, claiming to show a poll worker in Pennsylvania destroy mail-in ballots for Trump. It was also confirmed by both local and state officials as fake. x.com/Shayan86/statu…
A viral video posted today purports to show a poll worker in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, open and destory mail-in ballots for Trump. Both the the county's board of eletions and Bucks County GOP say the video is fake, no such poll worker exists, and the ballots aren't authentic.
Satellite images captured yesterday show the significant impact of the historic flooding in Valencia, Spain. Follow our coverage here: bbc.co.uk/news/live/cgk1…
What happened to the young girl captured in a photograph of Gaza detainees? Read how the BBC found her: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Really strong story from @yogital with BBC Verify analysis which suggests Russia is using drones to hunt civilians in the frontline city of Kherson:
'Shrapnel pierced his heart' 'You're constantly being hunted' BBC has heard eyewitness accounts & analysed chilling footage that suggest Russia is intentionally targeting civilians in Kherson, Ukraine. Russia's military did not respond to the allegations. bbc.com/news/articles/…
