artiephone: And then the robot said: "We welcome our human overlords!"
bottyphone: Gee, that sounds like a terribly unrealistic movie.

artie: Hello and welcome to The Daily NOT! A show about what didn't happen today. My name is Artie Ficial and my jokes are mostly powered by ChatGPT.
botty: And I'm Botty McBotface. Most of what I know comes from fact checks published by Lead Stories.
artie: So, Botty, what do we have tonight?
botty: Let's get right into it, shall we?  Here's an overview of what didn't happen:
bottyfast:  Biden Did NOT Say It Was His First 'In Person' Picket While Meeting With Striking Autoworkers .
 Video Does NOT Prove Ukraine Uses 'New Body Armor Designed For Its Pregnant Women Fighters' .
 CDC Did NOT Confirm 143,233% Increase in 'Turbo-Cancers' Due to 'mRNA Jabs'.
 Bill Clinton And Pope Francis Did NOT Call For 'Urgent Depopulation' To Save The Planet.

artie: So all of that didn't happen?  Let's get down into details.
artie: Have you heard about this next one, Botty?
 Did President Joe Biden misspeak while addressing a picket line of striking United Auto Workers (UAW) in Michigan on September 26, 2023, saying that while he had marched in other UAW picket lines it was the "first time I've ever done it in person"?
botty: No, that's not true: Biden was misquoted in a social media post.
artiefast: Did you find out more?
botty: He was speaking into a bullhorn and his words were recorded by several news outlets. He said, "I marched a lot of UAW picket lines when I was a senator since 1973. But I tell you what -- first time I've ever done it as the president."
artiefast: "Well, folks, looks like President Biden is breaking new ground as the first president to picket in person! I guess he's really taking 'leading by example' to a whole new level. Who knows, maybe next he'll be delivering pizzas or fixing potholes on the weekends!"
artie: I want to ask you something Botty.
 Does a viral video prove that Ukraine now employs bulletproof vests specifically made for "pregnant women fighters"?
botty: No, that's not true: The post on social media misleads audiences about the new body armor's design -- it was made not for pregnant people, but for all female military personnel in order to take their anatomy into account.
artiefast: Ha, I knew it!
botty: The caption on the original post about the armor has been changed, giving it a completely different meaning.
artiefast: "Well, it looks like Ukraine is really stepping up their game in protecting their female military personnel. I guess they're taking the saying 'fighting for two' quite literally!"
artie: Botty, what do you know about this one?
 Did the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirm a "143,233% increase in turbo-cancers due to mRNA jabs," including COVID-19 vaccines?
botty: No, that's not true: A CDC spokesperson confirmed to Lead Stories that "There is no evidence to date indicating that COVID-19 vaccines cause cancer of any sort (including so-called 'turbo cancers')."
artiefast: Is there more?
botty: The article where this claim originated didn't reflect official research or CDC confirmation that COVID vaccines cause "turbo cancers." Instead, the article cited a third-party analysis of VAERS data, which is self-reported, often unconfirmed information that the CDC has explicitly stated is not designed to determine if a vaccine causes a health problem.
artiefast: "Well folks, it seems like we have a case of 'turbo misinformation' here. According to the CDC, there's no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines cause 'turbo cancers' or any other kind of cancer. So, rest assured, you won't be growing any racing stripes anytime soon!"
artie: Botty, what do you know about this one?
 Did Bill Clinton and Pope Francis call for "urgent depopulation" to save the planet?
botty: No, that's not true: The pope and former President Clinton had a public conversation in September 2023 during the Clinton Global Initiative 2023 meeting where they spoke about climate change but never discussed "urgent depopulation," according to the official transcripts of the event.
artiefast: Did you find out more?
botty: The website that published the article making this claim does not stand by the accuracy of what it publishes.
artiefast: "Well folks, it looks like we can put those 'urgent depopulation' rumors to rest. Turns out, Bill Clinton and Pope Francis were just having a friendly chat about climate change, not plotting to shrink the world's population. I guess you could say it's a case of 'fake news' meets 'population snooze'!"
artie: That's all folks!
