A Seattle Q13 Fox employee has been placed on leave after a disturbing "deepfake" video of President Trump aired during his national address on border security this week, according to mynorthwest.com.
In addition to dialing up the orange to oompa-loompa proportions, somehow the TV station was able to manipulate Trump on the fly to show him creepily sticking his tongue out at viewers.
In a statement to MyNorthWest, Q13's news director said "We are investigating this to determine what happened," adding "This does not meet our editorial standards and we regret if it is seen as portraying the President in a negative light. The editor responsible for editing the footage is being placed on leave while we investigate further."
The most disturbing part of the prank is that Trump's speech was manipulated in real time - a technological feat known as "Deep Fakes" - a convincing computer generated manipulation which can produce an almost believable impersonation of an individual.
>tampering with a federal feed from the office of the President what a stupid faggot
Kevin King
>fire some shit employee when the entire station was in on it and probably giggling in real time
strip them of their FCC license literally fake news and harming the public
Cooper Young
Jow Forums would 100% be using deepfake to make liberals look stupid if they could hold down actual jobs. You're just jealous the left thought of it first.
Parker Scott
Dry run?
Andrew Hall
Not really. Professionalism is still respected.
Sebastian Myers
Yep
Jaxson Parker
>we did this intentionally and werent expecting backlash lmao so we pinned it on a random intern
Hunter King
>Jow Forums would 100% be using deepfake to make liberals look stupid But you don't have to do anything to make liberals look stupid
Joseph Gutierrez
>Professionalism is still respected. lol an obvious lie even by this board's incredibly low standards

someone pays these retards to write
Chase Adams
>You guys who value getting the real story would feed disinformation to other people if you could! I'm sure based on my projection! Okay. Still, we didn't and they did, Actually, come to think of it, lolcows are funnier unedited, so why bother?
Samuel Baker
Not gonna lie that video was pretty fucking funny
Dominic Jenkins
Why tf did they make his mouth comically large, dead giveaway
Dylan Allen
Meh. We memed a fucking President into office. They can take their jabs all day long and shill this board all day long for all I fucking care.
They're still going to be crying after the national emergency is declared, the wall is built and he's reelected in 2020. We got 6 more years of tears.
Trump said to Hannity today that he sees no reason not to declare a national emergency if Congress doesn't do anything
Joshua James
23 year old nurse recently died from heart failure 3 days after contracting a deadly form of the influenza virus in El Paso, Texas after treating a "refugee" that the border patrol dropped off at a hospital (Del Sol). The local news is refusing the cover the story for obvious reasons. Her family is pissed and once the story out but doesn't know what to do. I hope you Neets are ready for the pandemic that is coming.
Christian Ward
>Deepfake news
Isaiah Long
yeah? got a spoon?
Landon Bennett
shill all you want you aren't going to be getting anymore paychecks. Or are you just a fag that does it for free?
Nathaniel Rogers
sauce you degenerate fuck
Jaxson Watson
IT guy here
Deepfake shit is very intensive, nobody is doing this in real time without a lot of money dedicated to it.
I haven't watched the video but it probably isn't even deepfake anything, just fakenews bullshit of the week and a regular shitty morph or something of the video.
Bentley Ward
Yeah, it was not done in realtime. It was doctored later and aired.
John Evans
Family friend. I already told you that the local news is refusing to cover the story. We are waiting to get her death certificate. She died this week.
Jonathan Gutierrez
THANK GOD FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP! WE'RE GETTING BACK TO BEING FREE SPEECH AMERICAN'S, SAY NO TO MARXISM(SOCIALISM AND COMMUNISM) IT'S FOR STUPID PEOPLE! GOD BLESS AMERICA, TRUMP 2020!
Nicholas James
TRUMP 2020!
Cameron Martinez
>Trump said to Hannity today that he sees no reason not to declare a national emergency if Congress doesn't do anything I am completely okay with this. The liberal REE and chimpouts will make great fap material.
I would as blatant mockery, not tampering with an actual fucking broadcast on a news station. Faggot.
Jason Peterson
Mooooom the left meme'd!
Chase Walker
So your sauce is family friend
The fuck is wrong with you just say that nexttime filthy fucking degenerate the fuck you need a god damn death certificate spill the fucking beans here and now
deepfake... lol. this is just normal editing done in after effects. a deepfake would involve putting the president in a situation that looks real or making him say something he didn't say. Editor likely didn't care about the job anymore and wanted out. Like most local news editors...
Kayden Cruz
If the county website listed her death and cause I would be able to provide that as proof. This is real I will have more information this weekend when I meet with her family.
Aiden Allen
obviously this is just a test run.
Isaac Jenkins
Yeah, you know what would've been funny? Shopping footage of Michelle Obama to look like she had a pair of balls when she danced. Such a missed opportunity. Would've been a hoot.
Is this the "six ways from Sunday" Schummer threatened Trump with the intelligence agencies?
What software does this? A single deepfake picture takes a pretty powerful computer cluster to render it, you have to upload them to websites for processing because its too intensive for home pcs, although I think google released some source code, and with a really powerful gaming computer it shouldnt take too long. But wasnt the speech live? Is there some expensive software that does this? Or is this an agency or state actor providing software?
Jaxson Green
who was she if shes dead no foul right? and were going to findout anyways
Ayden Powell
The video looks more like "Svengooli" more than DeepFake™
Eli Thomas
No foul play but the hospital is refusing to help out the family. She was vaccinated to the nth degree working in the hospital and still contacted this form on influenza and died of it. Which I would imagine means vaccinations are not that effective against this strain. The government is releasing hundreds of this refugees every day in El Paso, whom potentially have been exposed to this. Most of these refugees are being sent to family members across the country via buses and airplanes.
John Peterson
>deepfake very, very shallow fake
Cameron Ramirez
>local TV station enployee >actual job
James Wright
Has Trump said anything about this yet?
Joshua Baker
Is this the final nail in Drumpf's coffin?
James Myers
the left will declare the editor a hero and he'll get a gofundme for 50 million dollars and never have to work again aside from giving victory interviews on various CNN and MSNBC broadcasts
Matthew Gutierrez
You work in the wrong industry then, my friend. Meritocracy is still alive in many different fields.
Evan Phillips
Please do. You may need to post it multiple times for it to catch. Try sending it to Breitbart or infowars or something maybe.
They got one of those migrant fucks molesting a kid at one of the shelters in El Paso run by an NGO recently too.I
The fucking director tried to downplay that shit and turn it into a not all immigrants thing. pure fucking evil.
That city is f95% Hispanic and very immigrant friendly since a lot of the spics living there have family in Mexico.
Daniel Russell
Fellow El Paso user please help spread this story. It is true. From what I understand she was treating the 6 year old Guatemalan boy that died. And you are right money laundering is king in El Paso. Most of the narcos live in the willows neighborhood alongside the DEA agents.
Colton Hernandez
Excuses for some TV station, so brave for you faggot
Hunter Jenkins
this,
Austin Reyes
deep orange pallor, tounge hanging out in exhaustion. sloppy and disrespectful. unfit!
Ethan Rodriguez
And thus the left and ultra liberals gain strength from this paranoia when even "the ends justify the means" fails them.
You're aware that many Jow Forums users are literal geniuses? Back to the fry pit you pretentious boob
Joseph Myers
People keep doubting that western Washington is not communist I hope this Stasi level shit helps outsiders understand
t. trapped behind enemy lines
Joseph Butler
It should warrant their broadcast license being pulled.
Joshua Foster
That's not even the half of it. People are making threads about how they edited Trump in real time, but nobody seems to care that there were two DIFFERENT videos aired.
>tfw no humor allowed lmfao, it's hilarious, toad dick confirmed
Isaiah Evans
2 cameras at 2 angles, fucking redguard
Thomas Powell
This just in: Trump says Nigger on national TV!
Evan Wright
my sister in law works at a hospital too. she got a flu vaccine a few weeks ago and got Guillian-Barre syndrome. she's having a lot of trouble walking and has to have some kind of immuno-suppresent IV infusion for 10 days. she had twins 6 months ago. i've never had the flu vaccine and i never will.
Luis Johnson
It's what it looks like at least, wrinkles in flag are the same just from different elevations of filming.
Funny as fuck. A test run though for future shit they'll pull
Sebastian Cox
Like making your enemies say nigger on national television. I mean come on. It's fake news about people that people love to hate. Like anyone will believe that the footage was doctored in real time when Pewdiepie says nigger again.
Thomas Davis
Guys... the fucking pictures on the right are different... and there's no medals on the left. What the fuck is going on here?
Levi Peterson
They knew they couldn't nitpick the part where he says politicians want to keep the people inside their homes safe so they just tried to make him look stupid. How sad.
Liam Parker
It's actually a little masterful. Now no one talks about that line - now it's all about this nobody that rigged a television station to literal boob tube. >Boob meaning idiot
Isaac Anderson
This story is just a psyop to continue to plant the concept of “deepfakes” in the mind of the public so Hillary can call it a “deepfake” when the whole world sees a video of her removing a child’s face and wearing it at comet ping pong
Gavin King
This
Anthony Bell
Lol who needs deepfakes to do that? There's no way to make them look stupider than they already are
No, its just the one on the right starts about a foot higher, you can't even see the bottom of the us flag which is why the other picture gets cropped out too.
Leo Rodriguez
>FAUX is for right winged uneducated robot sheeple who eat up FOX fake news
>Q13 FOX News of Seattle caught manipulating live video of President Trump in such a way CNN is now crying plagiarism.
