The good "creators" to follow for news generally provide a summary in Tiktok, then if you want to verify or learn more they have additional information and sources in their other locations (substack is a big one)

I can generally tell if it's AI generated, and if I have any suspicion then I try to find other reports and real sources via Google searches and whatnot. Like I didn't believe the gold trump statue, or the trump and Epstein statue were real.
