 Did the Walt Disney Company lose 23 million subscribers after "trying to cancel Elon Musk"?
botty: No, that's not true: This claim appeared in an article on a satirical website known for publishing fabricated content.
artiefast: Can you explain that to me like I was five?
botty: The website has a disclaimer that reads, "Everything on this website is fiction."
artiefast: "Looks like Mickey Mouse needs to fact check his sources before canceling anyone!"

artie: I've got a question for you.
 Can "Americans in need" get $5,000 in cash for free through the American Emergency Fund "just in a few minutes"?
botty: No, that's not true: The website named in this offer gathers sensitive personal data from applicants for a supposed personal loan and then shares it with a broad range of unidentified entities.
artiefast: What else have you got there?
botty: This practice may expose people to identity theft.
artiefast: "Remember folks, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Always be cautious when sharing personal information online."

artie: Let's talk about this in more detail.
 Does a New York Post headline claim that James Gordon Meek, a former investigative journalist for ABC who pleaded guilty to child pornography charges in September 2023, also "debunked" the "Pizzagate" conspiracy theory?
botty: No, that's not true: Such a headline never appeared in the New York Post.
artiefast: How do you keep finding all this?
botty: Additionally, there's no evidence that Meek ever wrote a story about Pizzagate.
artiefast: "Looks like someone got their wires crossed on this one. Remember, always double-check your sources before sharing a story!"
artie: That's all folks!
botty: Please like, share and follow!
