RTHK’s new podcast focusing on dispelling misinformation, disinformation and fake news.
Don't take for granted unverified claims and believe everything you see.
Each episode, we'll focus on a couple of viral posts that are making false claims and set the record straight.
Police are investigating a number of similar emails that were recently sent to several lawmakers depicting them naked in bed with a woman.
A fact checking expert said the photos have quite obviously been altered, with the legislators' faces superimposed over the original image.
It is one of many examples of fake photo scams, trying to solicit money from those who wish to prevent the images from being circulated.
In this edition of Fact Focus, we take a look at ways to differenciate between a fake photo and a real one, and find out how best to protect ourselves from these increasingly common scams.

Even though experts around the world have stressed time and again that Covid-19 vaccines are generally safe and effective, false claims continued to spread, alleging that the jabs are extremely harmful to human health.
In this edition of Fact Focus, we look at false assertions linking a rise in cancer diagnoses to Covid jabs.
We also investigate online claims that dunking a leaking gas cylinder in water can stop the leakage and minimise the chance of an explosion.
