Washington: Twitter has once again taken on US President Donald Trump, this time labeling a video tweeted by him which mocked CNN as manipulated media.

According to Twitter, “this Tweet has been labeled per our synthetic and manipulated media policy to give people more context”.

Trump tweeted a video with a fake CNN graphic on Thursday: “America is not the problem. Fake news is”.

The 60-second video begins with footage of one part of a viral video that shows a black child run from a white child. The fake CNN graphic reads: “Terrified toddler runs from racist baby”.

CNN covered the full version of the viral video in 2019. This is the third time that Twitter has flagged Trump’s tweets. (IANS)
