98,159 published reviewsبن غفير يرقص مع عرب 48 الاسرائيليين في مدينة اورشليم القدس بعد هلاك اسماعيل هنية
Publisher’s rating: مضلل
The review says the video is old: Ben Gvir posted it on Facebook on October 12, 2022, with a caption identifying the occasion as a celebration for the Kurdish community. That makes the claim that it shows him dancing with Arab Israelis after Ismail Haniyeh’s death misleading.
Deze foto toont een protestactie van het Israëlische zwemteam tijdens de Olympische Spelen in Parijs.
Publisher’s rating: De foto is echt maar heeft niets te maken met de Olympische Spelen. Het beeld werd genomen in Israël in november 2023.
The review identifies the image as a photograph of Israel’s artistic swimming team taken at the Wingate Institute in Netanya, Israel, rather than at the Paris Olympics. It says the original photo was shared on Instagram on November 19, 2023, and found no evidence that the team carried out the depicted action in Paris.

قطر ترفض دفن اسماعيل هنية في اراضيها وترفض اقامة جنازة له
Publisher’s rating: ملفق
The review rated the claim fabricated, saying it found no mention in Qatari media or official sources of Qatar refusing burial or a funeral. It reports that Hamas announced Haniyeh’s funeral prayer and burial in Qatar for Friday, 2024-08-02.
Die CIA warnte mit einem Video US-Bürger vor Beginn der Olympischen Spiele, die U-Bahn in Paris aufgrund der Terrorgefahr nicht zu benutzen.
Publisher’s rating: Falsch. Weder die CIA oder eine andere Einrichtung der USA haben enstprechende Warnungen ausgesprochen. Sie widersprechen den falschen Behauptungen ausdrücklich.
Door de hyperinflatie in Venezuela is geld zo waardeloos dat mensen het weggooien in containers.
Publisher’s rating: De video dateert van juni 2021 en werd gefilmd in Miami, Florida op een bitcoinconferentie. Met de huidige crisis in Venezuela hebben de beelden dus niets te maken.
The video shows Venezuelan banknotes being discarded, but the review identifies the footage as filmed in Miami at a bitcoin conference in June 2021—not as evidence of Venezuela’s current economic crisis. The same video had appeared on YouTube on June 6, 2021, and its description said it was filmed the previous day.
To prevent or control a silverfish infestation in your home, get a dehumidifier, repair leaky pipes and drains, and eliminate or repair any moldy or wet wood.
Publisher’s rating: The claim that using a dehumidifier, repairing leaky pipes and drains, and eliminating or repairing moldy or wet wood can prevent a silverfish infestation is true. Silverfish thrive in damp, humid environments, so reducing moisture and repairing potential water damage are effective ways to prevent infestations.
Bill Gates bringt «Madenmilch» auf den Markt, um die Welt zu retten.
Publisher’s rating: Nein. Der Microsoft-Gründer hat nie etwas mit der «Entomilk» zu tun gehabt. Das Unternehmen dahinter, Gourmet Grubb, scheint ebenfalls aus dem Geschäft zu sein.
The review reports that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation called the claim false and that its funding records showed no support for Entomilk or Gourmet Grubb. Entomilk did once exist, but the review says Bill Gates was mentioned on its archived website in a broader discussion of insect-based food startups, not as an investor.

Publisher’s rating: FALSO
The review found that Rayssa Leal did not dedicate her bronze medal from the Paris 2024 Olympics to Jair Bolsonaro during her CazéTV interview. It says the original recording shows no mention of Bolsonaro, and that Leal spoke about her nerves before the competition and the support of her team and the crowd.

Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, introduced the word ‘hello’ as a common telephone greeting, naming it after his fiancé, Margaret Hello.
Publisher’s rating: FALSE
The review says Bell initially suggested “ahoy, ahoy,” while Thomas Edison proposed “hello” as a telephone greeting in 1877. It identifies the woman in the viral image as Bell’s wife, Mabel Gardiner Hubbard, not a fiancée named Margaret Hello.
