When Nguyễn Cao Kỳ Duyên agreed to do a commercial for a supplement called Joint Bonus that helps people with joint aches, she didn’t think much of it. Then imposters stole the footage to market a fake product. By @lamthuyvo.bsky.social for @documentedny.bsky.social

Last week we welcomed AAJA-Innovator Award winner @lamthuyvo.bsky.social to campus. She spoke with our students about how to effectively report on AI as well as create reporting practices for building communities around service-oriented journalism.
Excellent panel on effective approaches to impact #ijf25 @journalismfestival.com

NEW: This one is a doozy—@wired.com's deep dive into the first six weeks of DOGE razing the US government. WIRED spoke with more than 150 sources across more than 20 agencies to get this story. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
Last but not least this is a model we've been able to apply to many other immigrant communities. Below are some tip sheets that is informed by this reporting.
They will be passed out via a zine across the U.S. and about 1K of them will reach Boston-area AAPI communities.

This investigation was is part of community-based journalism around misinformation. I've long been told by editors that stories like these are too niche. Yet to every Vietnamese person I spoke to had seen these ads. This is for them.
Two other collaborators and I have been teaching workshops around misinformation to Vietnamese folks (60+ across the country). Culturally relevant examples like these are crucial to explaining how misinformation is relevant to immigrant communities. It's hard to relate to this in abstract.
YouTube has taken down all accounts associated with the supplements that we sent them for review. And Vietnamese folks have been sharing the story, including one doctor who said she has been told by various patients that they thought the supplements can cure diabetes.
The story came to me from the Vietnamese community. Thanks to @vietfactcheck.org and Viet Bao, it's also accessible in Vietnamese.
It's currently available in print for $0.25 at Vietnamese stores in California and online.

We identified more than 50 YouTube channels hosting ads for the supplements, several websites that claimed false affiliations with hospitals and featured made up doctors.
Below is one website featuring a stock image of a doctor, claiming he was a real doctor.
Many immigrant kids told me they worried about the content that targets their parents.
For @documentedny.bsky.social and @vietfactcheck.org, I looked into one scheme that sells questionable supplements to Vietnamese folks using fake websites and videos of pop stars:

Over the past year, we’ve been covering how misinformation spreads to migrants on TikTok, and what people can do to better spot and combat false and misleading info when they see it.
Here’s some of the stories we’ve covered (🧵1/9):
Today's story at @gijn.org: a how-to explainer on a Documented investigation into the spread of TikTok misinformation among the immigrant community in New York. @lamthuyvo.bsky.social details how her team compiled, translated, and analyzed hundreds of videos from the social media platform.
I've long wanted to make it easier for folks to examine mis- and disinformation, especially in other languages. We're open sourcing our code for an investigation we did into migrant influencers: documentedny.com/2025/01/07/t...
