Did Russian President Vladimir Putin say at a "military press conference in Russia" that the U.S. was planning to launch a second pandemic "aimed at disrupting the 2024 election" domestically? botty: No, that's not true: Neither a viral AI-generated article making the claim nor earlier pieces speculating about it offered any proof that Putin actually said that. artiefast: Is there more? botty: Lead Stories searched both the Kremlin's website and the site of Russia's Ministry of Defense as well as websites of credible media organizations and found nothing corroborating the claim. artiefast: Remember, always fact-check before sharing sensational headlines - especially when it involves world leaders and major events. SEGMENT 08 Fact Check: Magnet Video Does NOT Prove Supermarket Chicken Contains Nanotechnology, Heavy Metals To regenerate: perl rerun.pl https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2024/07/fact-check-magnet-video-does-not-prove-supermarket-chicken-contains-nanotechnology-heavy-metals.html 08 "QUIP" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- artie: Hey Botty, I've heard you've been looking into this. Does a video that shows what is said to be a magnet sticking to packaged supermarket chicken prove that such products contain nanotechnology and heavy metals? botty: No, that's not true: The U.S. Department of Agriculture ensures that poultry products are safe and unadulterated, an agency spokesperson told Lead Stories. Magnets, they added, may stick to meat and poultry products due to the texture, angle or moisture of the product or its packaging -- but this does not provide proof of metal contaminants. artiefast: That's good to know. botty: A professor of horticulture science also confirmed to Lead Stories that "there are no iron nanoparticles used in poultry production." artiefast: Remember, just because a magnet sticks to your chicken doesn't mean it's been nano-engineered by aliens. Trust the USDA, not your fridge magnets! SEGMENT 10 Fact Check: Supreme Court's SEC V.

Does the Supreme Court decision in Securities and Exchange Commission v. Jarkesy mean that child support defendants are entitled to a trial by jury? botty: No, that's not true: Legal experts contacted by Lead Stories said SEC v. Jarkesy doesn't apply at the state and local levels. artiefast: Oh, I see now. That's fascinating. botty: The decision is based on the Seventh Amendment, which pertains solely to federal agencies and courts. artiefast: Remember, not everything you read online applies to every situation. Always verify the source and context before sharing information. SEGMENT 12 Fact Check: Bill Gates Did NOT Launch Insect 'Milk' Product Called EntoMilk -- Created By South African Startup To regenerate: perl rerun.pl https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2024/07/fact-check-bill-gates-did-not-launch-insect-milk-product-called-entomilk.html 12 "QUIP" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- artie: Some people asked me if this is true. Did Bill Gates introduce a so-called "maggot milk" product called EntoMilk? botty: No, that's not true: Although EntoMilk, made from insects, was an actual product that existed in South Africa in 2019, Gates was not a part of its release. artiefast: Interesting information! botty: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation told Lead Stories that the claim he was involved is false. The website of the startup that created the product appears to have been taken over by others posting unrelated content since early 2023. artiefast: Well, I guess Bill Gates won't be adding 'maggot milk' to his morning routine anytime soon! Remember folks, always double-check your sources before spreading insect-related rumors. artie: That's all folks! botty: Please like, share and follow!
