    I’m unfamiliar with this news site, but they must know they have to do better on sources, because this sounds like reporting on rumours.

    "Several social media users, including commentators and reporters…" (emphasis mine).

    Interesting that the right is already accusing them of potentially using deepfakes in the future. Maybe they know of something captured in video, or maybe random blanket statements of innocence are necessary with a knob end like Trump.

    I also hope no one was victimized.
