Video Edited to Show Biden Addressing Florida as Minnesota

Misbar’s investigation has found that this video has been manipulated. The sign behind Biden in this video has been edited to add the words “Tampa, Florida” instead of “TEXT MN to 30330.” The sign on the podium has been edited to add “FL” instead of “MN.”

The clip of Biden greeting Minnesota was taken from a video of him actually speaking at a campaign rally in St. Paul, Minnesota on October 30, 2020. If you go to the 28:30 mark of the original video, you can clearly see Biden standing in front of the sign saying “Text MN to 30330” while the podium correctly reads “MN."

The original video has since been taken down on Twitter. Each time a new version of the video is shared, it is now accompanied by a “manipulated media” tag on Twitter.
