Initial Configuration

Settings influencing the flow of the checklist

1. What is the main content format?

Technical variable: format_media

Text (Article, Tweet, FB Post)Image (Photo, Infographic, Screenshot)Video (YouTube, TikTok, Suspected deepfake)

Guide content

⚡ Phase 1: Emotional Shock & Bias

Confirmation bias self-assessment

Does the information align exactly with what you already believe? If so, be extra vigilant.

Detecting a sense of urgency

Does the content use terms like 'ALERT', 'SHARE QUICKLY' or 'WHAT THE MEDIA IS HIDING'?

Audio (Voice note, Podcast)

2. Where does this information come from?

Technical variable: source_type

Mainstream Media (NYT, BBC, etc.)Social Network (Individual account)Unknown site or strange URLPrivate messaging (WhatsApp, Telegram)

3. Do you suspect AI usage?

Technical variable: suspicion_ia

Yes, it seems too 'perfect' or strangeNo, it's typical content

🔍 Phase 2: Source Investigation

Conditional

👉 If "2. Where does this information come from?" is not "media"

Account age analysis

Was the account created recently (less than 3 months ago)? Propaganda accounts are often ephemeral.

Editorial consistency

Does the account post obsessively about a single divisive topic?

Lateral Reading Method

Open a new tab and search for what *others* say about this source or site (e.g., 'sitename + reliability').

📝 Phase 3: Text Analysis

Conditional

👉 If "1. What is the main content format?" is "texte"

Freshness check

Is the article several years old and taken out of context?

Synthetic style detection (AI)

Is the text highly repetitive, free of spelling mistakes but extremely neutral and 'smooth'? (ChatGPT marker)

🖼️ Phase 3: Image Expertise

Conditional

👉 If "1. What is the main content format?" is "image"

Reverse image search (Google/TinEye)

Has the original image been repurposed from another event?

AI generation indicators

Conditional

👉 If "3. Do you suspect AI usage?" is "oui"

Anatomical anomalies

Check hands (fingers), ears, and reflections in the eyes.

Background inconsistencies

Merging objects, illegible text in the background, illogical cast shadows.

🎥 Phase 3: Video & Deepfake Expertise

Conditional

👉 If "1. What is the main content format?" is "video"

Audio/video desynchronization

Observe teeth and tongue: AI struggles to simulate the inside of the mouth fluidly.

Contour 'morphing' effect

Is there a slight blur or abnormal pixels at the junction between the face and the hair?

Sequence origin

Is this video game footage (e.g., Arma 3) presented as a real war zone?
