Fox News has announced that it has replaced Tucker Carlson with a state-of-the-art lying Chatbot.

In a brief statement, the Fox chairman Rupert Murdoch thanked Carlson for his service but said that he had been “rendered obsolete by swift advances in lying technology.”

A dry run of the Chatbot showed it emitting nine lies per minute, besting Carlson’s average of eight.

BARRY CRYER’S SURREAL JOKE
A man walks into a pub and the landlord’s astonished. Half of the man’s head is half of a huge orange.
‘So sorry to be nosy,’ the landlord says, ‘but why is half of your head half of a huge orange?’
‘Well, I was cleaning up the loft,’ the man says. ‘And I found an old lamp. I polished it up, and a genie came swooping out of it, saying, “May I grant you any three wishes, master?”’
‘So I said, “I’d like to have a million pounds – and every time I take the million pounds out of my pocket, another million appears there.”’
The genie said, ‘Your wish is granted. And your second wish?’
The man says, ‘I’d like a big house with 100 beautiful ladies in it.’
‘Your wish is granted,’ says the genie. ‘And your third wish?’
‘I’d like half my head to be half of a huge orange.’

All credit to The Oldie, to whom I have never paid a penny. :roll_eyes:

Well spotted!

One gets a lot of that sort of thing in Duolingo, which makes the French to English translations so much harder. Churchill, ‘Two nations
’

Who was half American, same as the other bloke, more recently.
