No real.insider is going to be posting clickbait videos every day that all say Breaking News and URGENT! THREE MINUTES AGO! with lots of ridiculous tabloidy clickbait titles.

Usually just how ridiculous these channels are is obvious when you look at the page with all of them, instead of just one you run into in isolation.

Those videos may sometimes touch on something that actually happened - in which case the actual news about the pope would probably have been posted in LBN.

But you shouldn't believe anything in that AI slop that wasn't reported by real news organizations. It's a waste of time to watch AI-generated clickbait videos.
