Another example also involved Miami Herald, but this time an individual reporter, Alex Harris, was targeted. Using a fake tweet generator site that allows you to enter a user’s handle, so it populates with the genuine photograph and bio, someone created two offensive tweets. They were circulated as screenshots. Anyone who went to Harris’ Twitter page would have seen that she had tweeted no such thing, but in an age where people screenshot controversial tweets before they are deleted, there was no immediate way for her to definitively prove she hadn’t posted the messages. It was a wake-up call about how reporters can be targeted in this way. When someone photoshopped two offensive tweets and made them look like they came from journalist Alex Harris, she alerted Twitter users on her own account, but had no way to prove they weren’t true.

Using the official Hillary Clinton logo, someone created the following image that was then used to micro-target certain communities of color in order to try to suppress the vote. An ad that claims it was paid by Hilary Clinton’s presidential campaign makes it look like Hillary supporters have unfair voting advantages, but the ad is entirely fabricated. The account has since been deleted but original reporting and links are available at SFGate.com. Archived on September 6 2019.23 Screenshot by author. IMPOSTER CONTENT 41
