The MSM look to be pushing the 'they can fake anything with video nowadays' line.

A video produced by BuzzFeed has highlighted the growing problem of DeepFake videos, as it becomes easier than ever to make celebrities appear to say and do anything.

 

In the video, Barack Obama appears to say some rather un-Obama things, such as Ben Carson being “in the sunken place” or Trump being a “total and complete dipshit”.

 

>“We’re entering an era in which our enemies can make it look like anyone is saying anything at any point in time even if they would never say those things,” the Obama in the video says.

 

>However, it’s of course not Obama at all, but rather the actor Jordan Peele (of Key and Peele fame) providing the voice. Obama’s face, meanwhile, has been merged with the lips of Peele by a tool known as FakeApp.

 

>BuzzFeed noted that it took 56 hours to produce the video with the help of a video effects professional, so it is not quite in the hands of everyone just yet. But they noted that it is likely to get easier and cheaper in the future.
