It's like the MSM articles on deepfake videos.
If you just rely on the breathless reporting, you would think "OMG there are people that are able to make a video that looks exactly real showing someone famous doing nefarious stuff!! Must be the Russians!!"
If you actually watch those deepfake videos, you can see how laughably UNreal they are, but it doesn't matter b/c the MSM has already planted the seed of doubt in the minds of normies that this is now "a thing".
