Not specific to this case, but believing what you see depends on context and photo/editing software now available on phones as well. Sound bites have always been a concern and what you didn't hear could make a difference. We have now graduated to the video bite where what we don't see can make a difference. Then of course there is CGI stuff which makes what isn't real...real. And that's coming to a phone near you also. We see what the videographer shows us and, in my view, there is a Paul Harvey context story to almost every video.
