Why AI can't tell you what's really happening in IranIn the weeks since the U.S. launched its attack on Iran, videos from the war in the Middle East have flooded social media, but in the age of AI, how much of it can we actually trust?

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to verify that content, with social media users relying on platforms like Grok and Gemini to confirm that content is real or fake.

But their answers aren’t always adding up, telling users that videos are real when they’re in fact AI generated, or misidentifying content that is actually from the conflict in the Middle East.

Mislabelling content can feed in to misinformation loops, and the team at ITV News are working hard to identify what is real and accurate, from what may be fake or even ai generated.

So why can’t AI always be trusted to verify content and how do we fact-check what we see on social media?

Deep beneath the rubble of Iran’s bombed nuclear facilities lies an estimated 440kg of near-weapons-grade uranium. Following massive US and Israeli airstrikes in June 2025, much of this vast radioactive stockpile is now thought to be entombed underground, and the Iranian government claims it has no plans to retrieve it.

With the material enriched to 60%—dangerously close to the 90% threshold required to create nuclear warheads—the United States military faces an unprecedented logistical nightmare. How do you secure nearly 1,000 pounds of toxic, radioactive material buried hundreds of feet beneath hostile territory?

One year since Hamas launched a terrorist attack of unthinkable violence on Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages.

It was the worst atrocity suffered by the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

One year since Hamas launched a terrorist attack of unthinkable violence on Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages.

It was the worst atrocity suffered by the Jewish people since the Holocaust. 

In its wake came unspeakable suffering too, for the people of Gaza as Israel swore to wipe out Hamas. More than 40,000 are estimated to have been killed - making this an anniversary which has ensnared a whole region.

Now Lebanon, Iran and beyond are all caught up too.

In this special edition of the podcast, ITV News Presenter Mary Nightingale is joined by three colleagues to share their experiences of reporting on the first six months of the pandemic.

Along with Mary, Asia Correspondent Debi Edward, International Affairs Editor and Presenter Rageh Omaar and ITV Granada’s Political Correspondent Hannah Miller all contributed their reflections on covering the crisis in a new book, Reporting Coronavirus.

In this episode, they discuss how news was kept on air and online, from Debi's initial reports of a mystery virus that "still didn't have a name" to the radically changed lives and livelihoods people across Britain had to adapt to as the tragedy of avoidable deaths mounted.

Rageh shares the moment he did what "no reporter is supposed to do" less than an hour before going on air to present News At Ten, while Hannah explains how a WhatsApp message turned the story of a blind man into a national concern.

Plus, Mary shares the reality of life in the news studio and the unorthodox steps taken to keep the public informed throughout the crisis so far, before Debi explains why we may never discover the truth about the outbreak.]]>

The World War Z author had already imagined how the world would deal with a virus crisis years before 2020 happened - and has been proven eerily right over the last few months.

So who better to talk ITV News Political Correspondent Daniel Hewitt through the current crisis?

Max explains why the problems for the US don't rest entirely at Donald Trump's door, describes the details of the emerging threat that has him most worried and also evaluates Britain's response.

Plus he gives Daniel an update on how his comedian father is handling the virus since the pair teamed up for a Don'tBeASpreader viral video that was seen around the world.

In this emotional extended edition of the podcast, Charlene White tells fellow ITV News Presenter Julie Etchingham how hard it was to attend a socially-distanced funeral.

Lockdown measures have changed how we pay our respects. Funeral mourners are limited to just a handful of close family members and passing a tissue to a teary relative could land you in trouble.

Charlene explains how the stripped back process was a world away from the nine-nights - a traditional Jamaican wake that lasts for several days - she is used to and why her aunt's send-off still feels unfinished.

She also discusses why coronavirus has felt so close to home in her community and discusses the reaction she got to highlighting the disproportionate impact of the virus on ethnic minorities and black people.

Charlene and Julie also discuss the explosion of the Black Lives Matter protest movement in the wake of the death of George Floyd in the US and the prospects of lasting change in British society and family conversations across the UK.]]>

Then a week later the introduction of lockdown shut theatres, blocked crowds and left his play with no certain date of return.

Which meant TV and film deals were all put on pause, leaving Stephen in real uncertainty.

Speaking from New York, he describes his experience to ITV News Presenter Mary Nightingale, discusses the impact on the industry and offers a spirited defence of the need for the arts in all our lives.

The current advice from the UK government and the World Health Organisation is that face masks should only be worn by those with coronavirus symptoms, as well as health care workers. A review is happening right now to see whether the UK should start urging the public to wear face masks.

Some countries have already changed their guidance - in America, it's recommended people wear cloth face masks when outside their homes. And the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has called for people to wear non-medical face masks or coverings like scarves or bandanas when travelling. There's also the question of how effective face coverings are in stopping the spread of Covid-19.

ITV News Health Correspondent Emily Morgan and ITV News Science Editor Tom Clarke speak to
Trisha Greenhalgh, professor of primary care health sciences at the University of Oxford, who explains why she thinks we should all start wearing face coverings, which are different to the surgical face masks needed by frontline NHS workers.

The government has launched a review to try to find out. On Monday, the NHS released figures showing that, out of all Covid-19 deaths in English hospitals, 16.2 per cent of patients were from black, Asian and ethnic minority communities. That compares to BAME people accounting for 13 percent of the population in England and Wales, according to the last census. And in our health service, people from BAME backgrounds have accounted for two thirds of NHS deaths so far.

So what's happening? ITV News' Rageh Omaar has been investigating this issue. He speaks to Mary Nightingale about the socio-economic and cultural factors that are playing a part.

A global race is happening right now to fast-track efforts to develop one. Among the teams involved is one from the Jenner Institute at the University of Oxford - they plan to start human trials of a vaccine in the coming days.

ITV News Science Editor Tom Clarke and ITV News Health Correspondent Emily Morgan spoke to Professor Adrian Hill, Director of the Jenner Institute at the University of Oxford. He told us about the trial he's involved in, and why he thinks it will be the first one to finish testing this summer, and - if all goes well - how GPs could be giving the vaccines to patients by the end of the year. He also explained why waiting for coronavirus cases to drop would actually harm efforts to quickly develop a vaccine. The Oxford trial is receiving funding as part of a government vaccine taskforce announced on Friday.
