The New York Times has been lambasted online for bizarrely claiming that violence surrounding Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 was merely \u201cmisinformation\u201d and likening it to Deep State conspiracy theories.<\/p>\n

\n

The Gray Lady\u2019s Jennifer Medina sought to unravel the mystery behind Latinos in the US voting Republican, in a Friday\u00a0article<\/a>\u00a0titled:\u00a0\u201cA Vexing Question for Democrats: What Drives Latino Men to Republicans?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Medina teased out the motivations of Latino Republicans through a series of interviews, before attempting to conflate the notion that the \u201cdeep state\u201d had taken over the government during the Trump administration or that\u00a0\u201cBlack Lives Matter protests caused widespread violence,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0dismissing both ideas as \u201cmisinformation\u201d within the same breath.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the frustrations voiced by Hispanic Republican men are stoked by misinformation, including conspiracy theories claiming that the ‘deep state’ took over during the Trump administration and a belief that Black Lives Matter protests caused widespread violence.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Needless to say, the ever-watchful eye of Twitter did not let this claim about widespread violence slide. One Twitter user was blunt in his analysis:\u00a0\u201cThe New York Times is lying.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
