baseless attack on news media over photo of coffins
a facebook post circulated largely by conservative american accounts claimed that the mainstream media was using a photo of coffins from a 2017 movie in reporting on deaths in italy due to covid-19 and misleading the public; there is no evidence that american media outlets have used this photo
mainstream media is claiming that a photo of coffins from a 2017 movie is actually from italy during covid-19
mainstream media may be misleading public about severity of covid-19
