Facebook wrongly called the popular image of Donald Trump pumping his fist in the air after an assassination attempt against him an "altered photo," a spokesperson admitted Monday.
Users across X shared reports that their Facebook accounts were labeling the image as "altered", explaining "Independent fact-checkers reviewed a similar photo and said it was altered in a way that could mislead people."
Meta Public Affairs Director Dani Lever later explained on X it was done in error as the systems were meant to detect a separate version of the image.
"This was an error. This fact check was initially applied to a doctored photo showing the secret service agents smiling, and in some cases our systems incorrectly applied that fact check to the real photo. This has been fixed, and we apologize for the mistake," Lever wrote.

I wonder if Facebook and other techies realize they’ve already used up their allotment of the benefit of the doubt.
This is a typical lame bullshit excuse after the damage is done.
Election interference and insurrection.
The DNC whore Dani Lever needs to go up on a tree.
Just another one of those pesky glitches.
In this case, I don’t think the damage is on Trump. Everybody had seen the picture before FB censored it so they knew it was original
“It was an error” is the same thing as “I don’t recall.” Difficult to prove, but sure is convenient that it always falls one way. The entire online world of Big Tech has always been a massive psyop against the world. Where it was once “how to influence people to click our site” is now “how to influence people to enact our policy.”
The New York Times, on its cover story, left out the US flag.
I keep hearing talk that very heavy handed censorship is coming for election season. I’m wondering what it will look like
Dani Lever (right) left then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo administration’s for Facebook in August 2020 — but quietly kept working with his aides.
Yeah the credibility is shot, well at least for some people. The scary thing is there’s some people who will believe anything they say even after they’ve been proven wrong. How do you fight a credulity like that?
A gum-cuzzler, as we used to call them in college.
Probably has bed headboard CTE, if she worked for Cuomo.
Men digging holes to try to find what unites us
Dani Lever, “A Facebook manager who once worked for Andrew Cuomo secretly advised the disgraced ex-governor’s team to “victim shame” a sexual harassment accuser, according to text messages released this week by the New York Attorney General’s office.”***” In one instance, Lever helped Cuomo aides decide how to smear Lindsey Boylan, a Cuomo staffer who accused the governor of sexual harassment in December 2020.
“I think we can victim shame on the record,” Lever wrote in a December 2020 message”
Big Lies from those who are little weenies.
Disgusting, they knew what they were doing.
They just hate Trump and all who support him.
Once again thy use the same tactic over and over
Uh huh.
