Original Note:
The low resolution, grainy video makes it difficult to see any details of President Biden awarding the Medal of Honor to a Vietnam veteran. Higher-quality photos and videos clearly show the medal being placed correctly around the recipient's neck. https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/08/politics/fact-check-biden-medal-of-honor-backwards/index.html https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jul/08/viral-image/no-biden-didnt-put-medal-honor-around-vietnam-war-/ https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-biden-medals/fact-check-low-resolution-clip-does-not-show-biden-placing-medal-of-honor-backwards-on-vietnam-era-veteran-idUSL1N2YP12F
