Co-host of 'The View' takes responsibility for pants on fire claim about Biden pardon.

Ana Navarro, a co-host on "The View," confessed that she used ChatGPT's information after being ridiculed for spreading false presidential pardon details in support of President Biden.

Biden faced criticism this week for granting a broad pardon to his son Hunter Biden on Sunday, despite previously stating he would not do so. Navarro, a Republican who supports Democrats and frequently offers liberal commentary on "The View" and CNN, fiercely defended Biden against his critics.

Woodrow Wilson, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump all pardoned their family members. Now, Joe Biden has appointed a pardoned individual as an ambassador. Yet, some argue that this action sets a precedent.

Woodrow Wilson's pardon of a fictional brother-in-law named "Hunter deButts" was bizarrely claimed by Navarro, which prompted fact-checking and an admission of error the next day.

"ChatGPT, please handle this request for context. Thanks, Twitter sleuths," Navarro wrote with laughing emojis.

She posted a photo of the AI chatbot, which seemed to provide her with an incorrect statement about Woodrow's pardons.

Navarro's admission only seemed to give more ammunition to critics.

Journalist Glenn Greenwald wrote on X that the Hunter deButts thing is one of the funniest things to happen in media and on this platform in awhile, and that it's even better that she works for ABC News.

T. Becket Adams, the National Journalism Center Program Director, wrote that the funniest thing was not that ChapGPT hallucinated a Woodrow Wilson pardon, but that a robot spat out the name "Hunter deButts" and none of it sounded out of place to Ana Navarro, a supposed political insider and commentator. Not even a curious follow-up Google search.

This week, it wasn't just Navarro who used fabricated information to support President Biden.

Esquire removed a column by Charles P. Pierce on Tuesday due to his false statement that President George H.W. Bush had pardoned his son, Neil Bush.

"Hunter Biden's struggles and pardons should not define Poppy Bush's presidency. The moral: Please stop talking about Hunter Biden," Pierce wrote.
