Quite a basic debunk this one, but probably worth sharing. This video claims that a reporter on CNN's coverage of the June 3 London Bridge terror attack called it a "psyop":

In fact, what the reporter says, from 0:24, is:

"... of the senior law enforcement in London, and they are sending back to the New York office, who has that responsibility, as well as to the Strategic Intelligence Operations Center, the SIOC..."

The reporter actually gets the name wrong: the correct name is the Strategic Information & Operations Center.

The Strategic Information and Operations Center (SIOC) is the FBI’s global command and communications center. It operates around the clock to maintain enterprise-wide situational awareness and to provide FBI leadership with strategic information by serving as a clearinghouse to collect, process, and disseminate information in a timely manner.

SIOC leverages existing resources and provides a platform for more informed decision-making. It supports senior leadership and program managers with an expanded information base and the ability to synthesize intelligence and other information. Additionally, its personnel supports field commanders representing the Bureau worldwide in major investigations, tactical operations, and other matters.
