When it is suggested that there are Hollywood elites who eat whole babies for Christmas, one has to be careful. This is a special form of fake!

Some websites constantly appear with scandalous and dramatic headlines. These headlines are so “out there” that they are hardly credible. Nevertheless, these texts are sold as “news”. Like the headline about baby-eating Hollywood elites.

Like the headline “Jim Carrey Says “Hollywood Elites Eat Whole Babies for Christmas” – “The More They Suffer, the Better They Taste””. Attached is an article in which Carrey gives an interview and confirms that “Hollywood elites” eat babies.

This article features Jim Carry and includes a supposed interview with him. In it he speaks of the “brainwashing branch, new world order and a globalist empire of Lucifarianism.”

Hollywood Elites: Fauxtire
Hollywood Elites: Fauxtire

The entire text can be read in German, but is a translation from the US. The source article given at the end of the German translation leads nowhere, the template, which was simply translated, no longer exists.

Fact check Hollywood elites

We have a very special category here. The article is neither satire nor fake news. This special form is called faux tire. At this point we briefly explain what faux tires are:

Fauxtire is a portmanteau word consisting of the terms “Faux” (French for false) and SatTIRE. In fact, Fauxtire stories are a mix. They always have a satirical component and consist partly of “fabricated content”, which classically belongs to the area of ​​fake news.

In the end, satire is intended to entertain, while fake news is intended to deliberately deceive and manipulate. Faux tires are exactly in between. In our latest issue of spielFAIRderber we explain what faux tire is and how to recognize it.

Cheaply copied

German-language fauxtire mostly consists of cheaply copied and translated content from American fauxtire websites such as “ World News Daily Report ”. Therefore, there is almost a rule of thumb for identifying German-speaking faux tires:

  • Is the content incredibly dramatic and scandalous?
  • Does the content seem like “news”?
  • Is there a source for a website in eEnglish that has been translated 1:1 here?

If this is the case, then the likelihood of a faux tire is very high. Like this article with the Hollywood elites.
