In Ireland, a teacher is being jailed for the third time because he refused to address a #Transgender student with the pronoun “they.”

Publisher’s rating: The teacher – Enoch Burke – has been repeatedly sent to prison for failing to comply with a restraining order which banned him from entering the school at which he had previously worked. He had been suspended – and later dismissed – from the school. The suspension followed his disruptive behaviour after being asked to refer to a pupil as “they”.

Das ist ein aktuelles Zitat von Andreas Audretsch aus dem Jahr 2024.

Publisher’s rating: Hier fehlt Kontext: Das Zitat stammt aus dem Jahr 2022 und bezieht sich nicht auf die aktuelle Debatte zum Thema Migration und Asyl. Audretsch bezog sich auf ukrainische Geflüchtete, die kurz nach Russlands Angriffskrieg nach Europa und Deutschland flüchteten.

Dies ist ein echter "Spiegel"-Artikel über Christian Lindner.

Publisher’s rating: Der Artikel ist eine Fälschung.

The fact-check says the purported Spiegel article claiming that Lindner wanted to become vice chancellor is fake. It reports that Spiegel confirmed the message had not appeared on spiegel.de; a real Spiegel article with the same photo and publication time was apparently used as the basis for the fabrication.

Kamala Harris portait des boucles d'oreilles connectées Nova pendant son débat face à Donald Trump.

Publisher’s rating: Rien ne soutient ces allégations. Les boucles d'oreilles portées par Kamala Harris lors du débat ne ressemblent pas aux modèles mis en avant par les internautes. Après avoir ajouté à la confusion générale, la compagnie qui conçoit les écouteurs NOVA H1 a finalement démenti la rumeur.

The review says there is no evidence that Kamala Harris wore NOVA H1 audio earrings during her September 10, 2024 debate with Donald Trump. It notes that her earrings had a different design from the NOVA models, and that the company later stated they were not its audio earrings.
