AI-generated video falsely attributes claims about Flávio Bolsonaro to journalist
A fake video about Senator Flávio Bolsonaro is circulating online with an AI-generated voice attributed to journalist Márcio Gomes.
It uses real footage from an interview Bolsonaro gave to journalist Glenn Greenwald in the United States for Folha de São Paulo.
The false narration claims Bolsonaro was humiliated and exposed while answering questions about his income, leaving Brazil and election-fraud suspicions.
The video presents those claims as though they were facts, but the narration does not match what was said in the interview.
CNN Brasil says it never published or broadcast the video or similar claims and that Gomes never made the attributed statements.
The footage is real, but its AI-generated narration distorts the interview, making clear what is shown different from what was said.
