▼ + stars: | 2023-07-31 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

An image of a French news report about hot weather in Corsica is being falsely touted online as evidence of the media exaggerating high temperatures in France. The image is a cropped still from a broadcast weather report on CNEWS, a French-language news channel. “Same temperature manipulation in France relating to Corsica,” said one social media user sharing the image on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Reuters traced the image to a weather report broadcast on CNEWS on July 18 (here). The visuals were filmed on July 17 and were used to illustrate a broadcast on July 18 about temperatures forecast for later that day.
