Fake Video of Trump Shooting Media Played at His Resort Was ‘Unauthorized’ Conference Organizers Say

[quote] Mon October 14, 2019 New York (CNN Business) A fake video that depicts in extremely graphic fashion President Trump attacking and shooting his critics and media outlets does not violate YouTube's policies against content that incites violence because it is "purely fictional," the company told CNN Business Monday. The video, which has been circulating on YouTube and Facebook (FB) for more than a year, came to national prominence on Sunday after The New York Times reported it had been played at a conference held by a pro-Trump group at Trump's Miami resort last week. Reportedly made by an online group called TheGeekzTeam, the video is an edited scene of a church fight from the 2014 film “Kingsman: The Secret Service.” President Trump's head is superimposed on the main character in the video and it shows him shooting, stabbing, and assaulting other people in the church whose heads have been edited to show Trump's critics and the logos of news organizations. At one point, Trump is depicted as shooting in the head a person whose face has been replaced by a Black Lives Matter logo. [/quote]
