00:00Fact-checking false claims about the conclave
00:03The Catholic Church's cardinals are meeting in a secret conclave in Rome to elect the next pope
00:13and the occasion has sparked a deluge of fake news online
00:17This doctored screenshot mimicking a Guardian op-ed titled
00:21The next pope must be Muslim or there will be violence on the streets of Europe
00:26has been falsely attributed to journalist Yasmin Alibai-Brown
00:31Both the Guardian and the journalist have confirmed they never published such an article
00:35The screenshot was first published by an ex-account that consistently attributes false headlines to the Guardian
00:42A closer look shows that the logo says the Gronyad, a well-known colloquial name for the British newspaper
00:49This information claiming the pope has already been elected is also running rife
00:53Such as this video which claims the Philippines Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle has been chosen
00:58Or this manipulated photo suggesting Cardinal Robert Serra of Guinea has been elected
01:04Both these cardinals are among the potential candidates
01:08Tagle is considered a frontrunner and shares Pope Francis' devotion to social issues
01:13While Serra is well-liked by the most conservative wing of the Catholic Church
01:18But the pope's seat is vacant until the conclave of all serving cardinals under the age of 80
01:24has gathered and until a pope is elected with a two-thirds majority
01:29We also detected conspiracy theories circulating online
01:33claiming that the election of a black pope could bring about apocalyptic events
01:38These unfounded theories are linked to Nostradamus' prophecies
01:42which are often conflated to fuel conspiracy theories and disinformation
