Yet another false claim about CNN's coverage of the war in Ukraine is swirling on social media
Washington Yet another false claim about CNN's coverage of the war in Ukraine is swirling on social media -- this one an absurd conspiracy theory that CNN faked its footage from the scene of a fire caused by a Russian attack on a fuel storage site in the Ukrainian city of Lviv.
The conspiracy theory, which is being spread in multiple languages by pro-Russia accounts and others, is that CNN video from the Lviv fire on Saturday was actually filmed in the Canadian city of Edmonton.Why would anyone say such a thing? Because, as CNN anchor Don Lemon was reporting live from the Lviv fire, a firefighter seen behind him was wearing a coat that said"EDMONTON" on the back.But that's not fishy.
