How to fix it

Use accurate tiles and intros that the content actually delivers on.

Good to know

Tile shows a celebrity who isn't in the story, tiles that resemble genitalia at a glance, 'casting rumor' with no source.

Can FYProof spot it?

A full check of your video looks for it in what's shown, what's said, the words on screen and the caption. What a check finds is an estimate, not a guarantee.
