MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell laid into news outlets on his show Thursday night, comparing their collective failure to call out Donald Trump’s falsehoods to 2016.

“It was 2016 all over again, today,” he told his viewers. “Donald Trump spoke at his home in Florida for over an hour and all the major cable news networks, including this one, carried it live. Just like they all did repeatedly in 2016. It would be hard to find a sentence that Donald Trump said today that did not include at least one lie.”

O’Donnell acknowledged that some networks attempted to fact-check the MAGA leader, but only after he finished his speech.

“That of course is way too late and utterly useless,” he said. “No network tried to fact-check every lie Donald Trump told.”

      Copilot appears to even refuses to tell me that these are true, either when I encourage it by telling me to “correct thr statement” on the true statement, or when I explicitly tell it to tell me otherwise.

      you could tell an LLM to specifically lie and it would probably lie less than him. everything would be trustworthy if compared to the bullshit man
