Fact check confirms fake Economist cover featuring Trump and Putin
dailycaller.com — December 5, 2024, 04:01 PM UTC
A Facebook post claims to show a cover of The Economist featuring Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, warning of "Apocalypse." This claim is false. The Economist did not publish such a cover. Fact-checkers found no evidence of the cover on The Economist's website. The latest cover features Argentinian President Javier Milei, while the most recent cover with Trump was titled "Welcome to Trump’s World." Additionally, the fake cover contains multiple typos, further indicating it is not authentic. The last cover featuring both Trump and Putin was from February 2024 and did not match the claims made in the post.
