PSA: Check Out Fake Ai Rachel Maddow.

[TrollBuster9090]

Why somebody would bother to make a fake Rachel Maddow to talk politics is a mystery to me. But I'm glad to see "Cheap Knockoff Rachel" wouldn't even fool Sean Hannity.

1. I've seen those before, if I can tell it's AI, I DON'T

Watch it.

2. I keep seeing these pop up on my

Youtube suggestions. I used to click on practically any Rachel Maddow video that I hadn't seen before. Now I usually just scroll on by thinking that it's probably AI. Her brand is being diluted by drivel. I think that this is part of the reason that ill-intentioned accounts are producing this content.

3. Rachel has a section on the MaddowBlog on fake Rachel posts/quotes

The internet being what it is, sourcing information can sometimes be a challenge, particularly once it has been filtered through the various strata of social media.

We have noticed over the years that The Rachel Maddow Show has been on the air that some of the things Rachel says on TV, at outside speaking engagements, or online can take on a life of their own on the internet. And sometimes things she never actually said take on a life of their own as well.

To set some of the record straight, here are a few of the more common ones to cross our radar. If you have a question about whether a quote or event is really Rachel, write to the show on BlueSky at @MaddowBlog.bsky.social and we’ll hunt it down (and maybe even add it to this page!).

I suspect that his fake will make this page at some point

4. Why bother to post this garbage!

You’re just providing them with more clicks and ad revenue.
