2025-02-10 01:05:41 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The story did not appear on CNBC's website and the screenshot appears to have been fabricated. One of the "Trending Now" links is over two months old. A link to the supposed story later provided by the user who posted the screenshot did not go the CNBC website. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2025/02/fact-check-cnbc-luigi-mangione-found-dead-in-jail-cell.html

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1888748894101921932

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
