A video shared on social media purportedly shows a news anchor covering the death of Hillary Clinton.
Verdict: False
The claim is inaccurate.
Fact Check:
Clinton received backlash for her recent comments about supporters of former President Donald Trump, suggesting they are “extremists,” Fox News reported. Many Republican lawmakers responded to this statement, including Florida Rep. Byron Donalds who stated it was “unhinged behavior.”
The Facebook post purports a news outlet reported on the death of Hillary Clinton. The post shows video of a TV news anchor introducing the topic of her death.
“We begin with the breaking news about Hillary Clinton’s death,” the anchor says.
The video then cuts to unrelated footage of Clinton. The text overlay reads, “That time they ‘accidentally’ reported that Hillary died.”
This claim is inaccurate. There is no credible news…
