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.

00:48This 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 claiming that the election of a black pope

01:35could bring about apocalyptic events.

01:38These unfounded theories are linked to Nostradamus' prophecies,

01:42which are often conflated to fuel conspiracy theories and disinformation.
