Fake Video shows veterans cancelling their auto insurance

Why Troubling News:

What looks like a CNN breaking news segment about car insurance for veterans is drawing attention on social media, but maybe not the attention the account posting the video hoped for. The video in the Aug. 18 Facebook post features CNN’s logo and a "breaking news" chyron that says: "Veterans are cancelling their auto insurance and doing this instead. The video itself is altered. The audio is out of sync with the person supposedly talking in the video. No such story exists on CNN’s website. And the network spells canceling with one L, not two, as the word appears in the purported chyron. I rate this as an authentic CNN segment False.
