**Viral News Snippet:**
**CLAIM:** A video allegedly showing Gayle King wiping a tear after being forced to issue an on-air apology for her praise of Kanye West’s recent “White Lives Matter” T-shirt is being shared across TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) with the caption: “The woke agenda finally broke her.”
**REALITY CHECK: FAKE.**
- The video is **AI-generated deepfake**. Forensic analysis shows unnatural eye gloss, audio desync, and a glitch in the background clock (stuck on a time from 2019).
- **Fact:** Gayle King has not publicly commented on Kanye’s shirt, and *CBS Mornings* has confirmed no such segment aired.
- **Origin:** The clip first appeared on a parody account known for fabricating celebrity meltdowns.
- **Verdict:** Do not share. The viral claim is entirely manufactured.
