We are already in era where there is no way to tell if a picture or a video is real. Lateral reading does not always lead to a conclusion, as it is possible to have no evidence of authenticity or vice versa. Fake news, fake pictures, fake videos, gaslighting and other malicious activities regarding the subject (of reliability) are also so popular, that one can only refrain from making crucial conclusions from internet (or other) content, that is not well known as facts by the public. So 1. chill 2. check 3. if not confident of reliability, ignore

I am surprised you didn't know how to pronounce Hermione; I know most people don't but I'd have expected you to from Shakespeare. Also, I think you have the timeline of your experience a bit wrong because if you read the fourth book before seeing a movie you should have learned how to pronounce the name there.
(That bit is relevant because even people you should be able to trust, about things they should know like their own experience and memories, can be wrong and you might want to verify with an outside source anyway)

Thank you. I've been wondering how you find out if a pic or video is real and this is very helpful. Also if it strikes you as questionable you should double check. And some things are obvious. Sharks are not fresh water fish. Sometimes people don't notice. Got a pic the other day that showed a bridge connected to a floating island. Someone wanted to know where it was at. I'll assume that they didn't notice. At least I hope so. :)

Thank you for sharing the Killmonger bit.
Hadn't even heard of it and more people should be in fear of/laughing at it/however you're supposed to emotionally react, lol.
Like, yes, terrifying, but I needed that. Thank you, deepfake tech? Humans will always scare me more than sticks, but humans AND sticks is just; Yes, I'm scared of every single stick now.
Humans made them into clubs and etc.

This is quickly becoming my favorite CrashCourse series ever! Not only is it really useful, but each episode seems to be building upon the previous ones in a way that makes it really easy to remember what we've learned. I only wish I could have had this when I was taking AP Lang & Comp 8 years ago-Thank you so much, and keep up the great work!

Cant forget the maga hat kid. I was in a circle of people wanting to punch that kid. All because of an edited (selective clip) video. Scary times. I spoke up and was aggressively labeled. No hard feelings but i cant express how important this segment is. Youre a legend

I wish this series included a video or at least a mention about meta fake news, which is when someone shares a very obvious fake image for instance, arguing someone else is trying and not succeeding to fool others.

i rely on reverse image search a lot and definitely do NOT believe google's is the best. it does reasonably well, but yandex's reverse image search is far better, for reasons that i don't entirely understand.
