FAKE PELOSI VIDEO GOES VIRAL ON FACEBOOK

A manipulated and widely shared video that depicts House Speaker Nancy Pelosi slurring her speech and appearing intoxicated was labelled “partly false” by Facebook over the weekend, renewing scrutiny on social media and its role in reining in misinformation. TikTok, Twitter and YouTube all removed the footage after CNN inquired about it on Sunday, but it remains on Facebook. The altered video, which originally appeared on TikTok, originated from a May 20 news conference.
