Am I hallucinating about what the C-SPAN2 captioning says on their webpage?

Posted by ReluctantCynic (aka ReluctantCynic) Feb 9 '21, 08:14

I cut and pasted this for posterity:

THE U.S. SENATE IS ABOUT TO GAVEL AND GET THEIR WEAK UNDERWEIGHT BRIT LAWMAKERS TODAY CONSIDERING THE NOMINATION OF DENIS MCDONOUGH TO BE THE NEXT VETERANS AFFAIR SECRETARY. FINAL, RACE VOTE IS SET FOR 5:30 P.M. EASTERN TODAY. NOW, LIVE COVERAGE TO THE U.S. SENATE HERE ON THE SPAN TWO.

But if you go to their page and scroll to the top (to 0:00) in the gray bar, you can see for yourself.

I'm assuming it's some weird mis-transcription from an AI module, but still ... .
