The exercise inspired Stephenson and his colleagues at the Arizona Agenda, whose daily newsletter seeks to explain complex political stories to an audience of some 10,000 subscribers.

On Friday, Stephenson published [URL='https://arizonaagenda.substack.com/p/kari-lake-does-us-a-solid']the piece[/URL], which included three deepfake clips of Lake.
