Critics \u200dargue that the\u2063 term &#8220;cheap fakes&#8221; could be abused similarly to &#8220;misinformation&#8221; and &#8220;disinformation,&#8221;\u2063 potentially discrediting genuine footage by labeling it \u200bderogatorily. Instances of\u200b Biden appearing\u200d disoriented or struggling, such as difficulty entering his SUV or during a D-Day commemoration, are cited as examples that sparked \u2062the usage of &#8220;cheap fakes.&#8221; The article infers a bias in mainstream media&#8217;s \u2063handling of these incidents, suggesting a protective\u2064 stance towards Biden&#8217;s image by downplaying genuine concerns raised by the video contents.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> <script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Cheap fakes!
