My uncle told me to always check the original source footage, not the edited clip

He said this about a famous UFO video making rounds last year. I tracked down the raw news broadcast from 1997, and the 'object' was just a lens flare from a helicopter. Anyone else have a piece of advice that actually worked for debunking something?

Checking the video's metadata for timestamps and locations can expose a lot of fakes.

Yeah, reverse image search has saved me so many times.

My friend got catfished hard until we used @morgan.logan's metadata trick.
