And BLM as a violent reactionary force is a frightwing portrayal of a citizens movement. When there is a protest, they usually turn violent because opposing groups want it to be so and this goes both ways. We would just as soon a violent BLM protestor is arrested and prosecuted like the Proud Boys and other ultra right wing groups.
It is generally accepted that organizations like WaPo and NYT are not purveyors of fake news as the Trumplicans wants us to believe. There are no alternative facts, only one set of facts.

I can also demonstrate that the NYT was not immune to this infiltration in the 1980's. Not that this is relevant to the current discussion.
