Spotting Misleading Images and Clips
Photos and short videos spread faster than text, and they are also easy to reuse out of context. An image that appears to show a current event may be older, from another place, or edited. Reverse image search tools and the original publisher's page can help confirm where a picture came from. If a striking image has no clear source, treat it with caution until a reliable outlet confirms it.
