Appreciation post: I used to brush off the 'crisis actors' claim until I started keeping a folder of every shooting clip side by side
Three years ago I'd just scroll past those comments, but after the Nashville thing in March I started saving raw footage from 6 different networks into one folder on my laptop. The same 4 people kept showing up in press pens and parking lots, and I even matched one guy's jacket to a clip from a different state 8 months earlier. I'm not saying every event is staged, but once you line up the timestamps the official story stops lining up. Has anyone else tried keeping a side by side folder, and what tool do you use to spot the same faces across clips?

Funny thing is this same stuff shows up way outside of shooting coverage. Look at local news when there's a big storm or a factory fire and you'll see the same handful of "witnesses" giving interviews, sometimes wearing the same outfit they wore at a different event months back. Part of that is just because news crews all grab whoever is willing to talk, and some people love being on camera, so they chase every event in town. But the pattern is real and it gets weirder the more you look at it. Started noticing it with those paid crowd gigs too, like the people who show up at rallies or store openings holding signs, same faces, different city. Once your brain locks onto it you cant unsee it, and that is the part that messes with you, not any single clip.
