In August 2024, the news dispersed on the Internet that the American rapper who visited the Olympics stole the gilded iPhone. We decided to check what such messages are based on.
Telegram channels were written about the theft of the phone from the musician "Nevzorov"(590,000 views at the time of writing this analysis),"Tsargrad-TV"(141 000),"Mishovets Yegor"(89,000),"Special operation z"(74,000),"Evil journalist"(50,000) and others. We also share users of social networks ("VKontakte" X) And Platform blog. Some information Portals. The authors of many publications refer to the data of the Paris Police, where, in addition to the statement of the rapper, even more than 10,000 complaints about theft were received.
American rapper Snup Dogg Arrived At the 2024 Olympics in Paris, to take part in the final stage relay races Olympic fire. The artist also took an active part in the Olympic Games as a special correspondent of the American television channel NBC.
Despite the fact that Snup Dogg is a world-wide star, not a single authoritative media (French or international) wrote about the theft of his phone. At the same time, the authors of most posts about the incident refer to the data of the Paris Police. "Verified" studied website Prefectures of the Paris police are units of the France Ministry of Internal Affairs, which provides police and some administrative services to residents of the capital and three departments adjacent to it: O-de-de-de-Sen-Sen-Deni and Val-de-Marn. In this source, a message about the theft of a phone at Snup Dogg could not be found. The rapper himself did not talk about the theft in his social networks (Facebook, X, Instagram).
The earliest publication of the news, which “verified” was found, appeared on August 12 at 12:32 Moscow time in the Telegram channel “The empire is very evil"(27,000 views at the time of writing this analysis). This channel publishes satirical news, which are then often taken as a clean coin, although its description says: “Caution, a fake and a tough satire are possible. Written is an artistic fiction, all coincidences are random. ” The fact that history was invented precisely by the authors of the channel, testifies and fast, published by them at 23:03 of the same day: it contains a screenshot of news in the Tsargrad-TV Telegram channel and the commentary “Lord, we begin to collect #crop. In the comments you can throw off where you will meet our news with you. ”
“Verified” has repeatedly denied the messages that appeared in the channel “The Empire Very Evil”, and then spread under the guise of real news. So, for example, the channel joked that Alla Pugacheva They stole an expensive watch at the funeral of fashion designer Valentina Yudashkin, which Hobichorsing Russia was officially recognized as a sport and that a couple from Kazan called a newborn son Chushpan (Then the series “The Word of the kid” was just released, where this word was used by heroes very often, albeit in a negative way).
Thus, there is no confirmation that at the Paris Olympics, Snup Dogg stole a telephone or other personal belongings. A message that dispersed along social networks and blogs is nothing more than a joke from the Telegram channel that specializes in satirical news.
