WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House will fix errors in a much-anticipated federal government report spearheaded by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which decried America’s food supply, pesticides and prescription drugs.

Kennedy’s wide-ranging “Make America Healthy Again” report, released last week, cited hundreds of studies, but a closer look by the news organization NOTUS found that some of those studies did not actually exist.

Asked about the report’s problems, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the report will be updated.

Someone's going to figure out that RFK's people used ChatGPT to write this report, I bet, and then no one checked it and it just made up fictional studies.

The references to vegetative electron microscopes were certainly a clue.

Yeah, I was surprised the article didn't mention the obvious likelihood that that's what happened.
