| Twitter tagged Trump's video for tampering with it |
Twitter marked a video of US President Donald Trump containing an incorrect portion attributed to "CNN Racist". The site also added a warning, warning that the tweet contains a fake video.
The video was tampered with to give the impression that it was being broadcast on CNN. It contained two young children who rushed to "write a scary child who escaped from a racist child." The clip was then accused of "false news" (using CNN as an example) to distribute misleading information.
Twitter added Trump's video later on Thursday to what he described as manipulative. Last Thursday, Facebook removed Trump's campaign ads that clearly showed Nazi symbols.
The most recent decision on Twitter was when Trump signed an executive order last month to reduce the scope of protection against social media companies brought against content posted on their platforms.
Although Twitter has previously ignored the controversial US president's tweets, he has begun adding tags in recent weeks to urge users to review Trump's misinformation and send out warnings. One of the tweets overrated the violence.
It should be noted that Twitter directive prohibits the sharing of "misleadingly edited" videos.
