NewsNation host Chris Cuomo is being trolled on social media after falling for a deepfake video purporting to show New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez discussing the Sydney Sweeney jeans furore on the House floor.
Cuomo posted an Instagram video on his X account on Wednesday – believing it to be real, having apparently not noticed its watermark admitting that the clip was “parody 100% made with AI” – that showed “AOC” arguing that Sweeney’s new American Eagle commercial, in which she declares that she has “great jeans”, a pun on “genes,” is racist.
