MADDOW DEBUNKS: Weird fake news, A.I. slop stories about her and MSNBC infect social media - Rachel Maddow - MSNBC

Rachel Maddow takes a look at the sudden flood of artificial intelligence-generated fake stories on social media, using false stories with her at the center as examples. These false stories have her doing everything from rescuing Texas flood victims, to having a baby, to starting her own news network, none of which are true. The lesson is that now, more than ever, it is important to check the source of anything you see or read. - Aired on 07/21/2025.

Unregulated Capitalism screwed it fast. There are still good stuff, but the cesspool of Capitalist social media outlets has run amok.
