The Trump campaign has confirmed that it had applied a filter to the picture of Biden in a Facebook ad launched on September 3, 2020, but declined to say why.
In recent days, there have been multiple instances of the Trump campaign uploading manipulated media to its followers across mainstream social media. On Sunday, the White House director of social media Dan Scavino tweeted a video that claimed to show Biden falling asleep during a TV interview. It was fake, quickly traced back to an interview from 2011 with musician and actor Harry Belafonte.
On Monday, a deceptive post from the Trump campaign's"War Room" Twitter account was flagged by the platform and labeled as containing"manipulated media." To all the triggered journalists who can't take a joke about their candidate, it's not our fault Joe Biden was dumb enough to say this on camera.In the real version, Biden had been mimicking quotes from president Trump and vice president Mike Pence."'You won't be safe in Joe Biden's America.' And what's their proof? The violence we're seeing in Donald Trump's America," he actually said.
"We don't do this to help politicians, but because we think people should be able to see for themselves what politicians are saying," CEO Mark Zuckerberg said last year.
