Using low-quality video that distorts how Biden appears, pundits made the false claim go viral on social media.
The posts about Biden’s Maui visit are the latest attempt by right-wing media to bend the rules of social media platforms, especially tech billionaire Elon Musk’s X app. Last month, conservative pundits spreadAlthough Musk has changed many of X’s rules since he bought it last year, X’s website still has a written policyX did not immediately respond to an email request for comment on the Hannity video. Fox News, where Hannity has a show, also did not immediately respond to an email request.
Several videos on YouTube used the lower-resolution footage to allege that Biden fell asleep. One from pundit Tim Pool had 116,000 views, another from The Hill newspaper had 118,000 views, and a third from a self-described motorcycle enthusiast had 3,100 views. YouTube bans misleading content if it’s been “technically manipulated or doctored in a way that misleads users and may pose a serious risk of egregious harm.” It also has a policy of reducing the spread of “borderline” videos that come close to crossing its line but don’t.
YouTube did not immediately respond to an email request for comment. Pool and The Hill also did not immediately respond. A post on Instagram from the account students4trump had 28,584 likes after about five hours Tuesday, according to the platform’s publicly viewable tally. The post paired the allegation that Biden fell asleep with the lower-quality video on a repeating loop.“certain highly deceptive manipulated media,” but it says there’s no way to articulate a comprehensive list of what is prohibited and it relies on the advice of outside experts.
