The deceptive Biden G7 video was quickly debunked, but it kept going viral anyway

It is not cost cutting at Twitter. It is deliberate.

I'd still rather have kind, silly grandpa than angry orange grandpa

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Misleading videos and false claims that President Joe Biden wandered off aimlessly from the G7 conference last week continued to go viral despite debunkings and fact-checks that tried to correct the record.

Google recommended false versions of the story as “top stories.” Deceptive video clips continued to accumulate millions of views on X.

Laura Edelson, an assistant professor of computer sciences at Northeastern University, said that the people behind the misleading claims are benefiting from tech companies’ cost-cutting.

That puts the platforms in a relatively defenseless position against a partisan media outlet that decides to push a misleading claim, Edelson said.

Asked for a response to White House criticism, a spokesperson for the New York Post said the publication would speak through its editorials, including one Tuesday about how Biden’s age-related decline is obvious.

X bans “out-of-context media that may deceive or confuse people and lead to harm.” TikTok and Meta have established fact-checking programs designed to limit the spread of misinformation.

Even without the other video, it was pretty obvious he was watching the other paratroopers.

On Ben Shapiro's show today he referenced this this as a "so called debunked video". Because, you know, he has no integrity.
