It turned out to be false, though. Harvey wasn’t “booted off of Family Feud,” and Oprah Winfrey hadn’t recently talked to him (see picture below). Also, the ad led to a scam that said Harvey had supported a product called Canna Labs CBD Gummies when he hadn’t. He never said that any kind of CBD candies were good. When we searched Google for more information about Canna Labs CBD Gummies, we mostly found fake web pages and videos.
People who clicked on the ad were taken to a fake CNN story on pastadibern.pro. The headline read, “Steve Harvey Fired from ‘Family Feud’ After Shocking On-Air Confession to Oprah Winfrey.” (It wasn’t possible for us to make a link to an old version of the page.)
The fake CNN story was on pastadibern.pro, not cnn.com.
