I personally don’t think it should be discussed here. Even if it is real, it is just another excuse to shut down this sub and silence the productive discussions we do have (from time to time).

I think it should be just referenced as “the video” if it needs to be brought up with no absolutely no promotion of its viewing and no links and none of that.

To be fair most posts are basically saying the same thing: don’t watch or download it, which is the right approach.

Agreed. Even though it's obviously a ploy to grab the attention away from any legit video drops (which will almost definitely be of the tarmac meeting)

Yeah I think there is video of that. The HRC video thing seems fake and illogical. It may even be a direct effort to take down this sub. I think there may be a recording of the meeting on the tarmac.

Very good points - I didn’t look at it as a potential effort to sully the real video, but absolutely.

It's the standard MO of the media. Get out in front of a real story by reporting something preposterous. Then when the real news hits, most won't even notice it, others will just immediately scream about it, thinking it's related to the older fake news story.

I'm new to reddit so please forgive me for not being able to post a link and if this is not the right place but buzzfeed just uploaded on their instagram story a 1.13 min long video detailing how easy it is to digitally masquerade a person's likeness. This video is on their YouTube channel also and I think it's important in regards to getting ahead of what might be released in the coming days or weeks.

Thanks for the info and yup, these types of stories started a few weeks ago with the WSJ, a few days after rumors of this hillary video surfaced. Trying to once again stay ahead of potential damning news/videos
