That’s exactly what news programs that use music, sound effects, and commentators who are little more than gawkers are doing.
That’s not reporting; it’s merely a show that looks like it, a desecration of reality.
That’s why I prefer the old-fashioned form of media news, using text and images.
Of course, this also involves arbitrary intentions and editing, but the problems are far less severe than with video.

In Japan, there’s a tradition of publishing “graduation anthologies” (or graduation albums) at elementary and junior high school graduations, featuring essays and photographs.

These anthologies have long been criticized for their high resale value (including essays from Haruki Murakami’s childhood and images of actresses in their youth) and their indiscriminate use in crime reporting as “student images” of perpetrators.
Currently, these anthologies are being used as unaltered, clean “material” for deepnude learning, leading to increasing discussion about their need for abolition.
In short, even generations who lived before the age of social media are at increased risk of becoming victims of deepnude through the resale of these publications.
I believe the era of publishing personal information on paper, like gentlemen’s directories or phone books, is over.
The culture of graduation anthologies and their accompanying photographs, which even have the potential to be altered for child pornography, should end with this generation.
