The Account That Posted The Viral Patriot Front Video Yesterday Was Fake Created Days Ago With An AI-Generated Face Pic As Its Avatar (Photos &Video)

This viral video of the Patriot Front marchers from the now-suspended “@SherylLewellen” account, which was created just days ago, had over 1 million views!

Now, if you saw this video earlier on Twitter, the account might have looked a little different. And that’s because the profile photo used to be of an attractive blonde woman whose bio claimed she was a digital/print journo with a love of avocados:

On LinkedIn the person does not exist:

That profile photo was created using AI:

Note that the tweet in question was posted via the “Twitter Web App” rather than one of the Twitter smartphone apps, meaning it was likely tweeted from a computer rather than the cell phone of someone on the scene. (TLDR, it’s probably plagiarized from whoever took the video.)

“A whole lot of big accounts took the bait on this one” especially the lefties account who helped spread this account.

The account was not very active:


Some PR person was talking the credit for the account, and admitted that the goal was to “fool journalists into promoting Patriot Front’s demonstration in Washington D.C.”::

She was the only digital journalist that didn’t speak during the video.

Also, the only journalist not to use this momentum to grow her career. No comments, no videos, no go to my YouTube.

People reacted to the viral video yesterday accusing the “Patriot Front” of being federal agents!

I did not see it if there… but, are the trees in the background with all the green leaves real? I mean, Are there still trees in DC with that many green leaves on them at this time of the year? C’mon man
