ewsmax magazine’s cover story focused
on the explosive growth of artificial intelligence and the dangers it poses to society, democracy, and the workplace. Since then, an AI clone
news anchor, “Roxanna,” was introduced at Real- Screen West 2023, a conference connecting content creators and producers with television executives. Marc Scarpa, co-founder of DeFiance Media, demoed Roxanna, a lifelike AI- generated clone of a human who reads news fed to it by copying and pasting internet text. Roxanna can deliver breaking news in up
SCARPA
to 80 languages globally, every two hours. Critics fear this synthetic media could
spread deception quickly, easily, and cheaply to targeted audiences. Meanwhile, Portland-based
radio station Live 95.5 released AI “Ashley,” a cloned version of its midday anchor Ashley Elzinga. A video posted to Twitter by
the radio station displayed the AI clone, who is reportedly slated to be part of her five-hour show daily, calling a listener, asking questions in a natural conversational tone, and announcing the winner of concert tickets.

JUNE 2023
n June, Newsmax magazine spotlighted the “Kamala Conundrum,” reporting that most Democrats want Vice
President Harris off the 2024 ticket. With President Joe Biden’s age and health serving as
major issues — he will be almost 82 on Election Day — Harris would take over the White House if the president was forced to step down during his second term. Since our June story, Harris’ poll ratings have sunk
further. She’s now the most unpopular vice president in polling history, according to NBC. Only 32% of Americans have a positive view of her, while
49% have a negative view. Harris’ net-negative rating (-17) is the lowest for any vice president in the poll’s history.

NETANYAHU operations
in the future. “I can say our operation is not a one-off ,” he warned. “We will eradicate terrorism wherever we find it.” Israeli troops, he said, were aiming to destroy weapons stored in the
camp, home to an estimated 12,000 Palestinians. In April, Newsmax
reported Jenin has become “ground zero of a simmering Third Intifada” against Israel.

EPSTEIN
he U.S. Justice Department said a “combination of negligence and misconduct” enabled financier Jeff rey Epstein to take
his own life at a federal jail in New York City in 2019 while he was awaiting trial on sex traf icking charges. Inspector General Michael Horowitz in June cited the federal Bureau of Prisons’ failure to assign Epstein a cellmate after his previous one left and problems with surveillance cameras as factors in Epstein’s death. Horowitz also said Epstein was left in his cell with
too many bed linens, which are a security issue and HOROWITZ were used in his suicide.
