WHO CHECKS THE FACT-CHECKERS: NEWSWEEK ROASTED AFTER PUBLISHING FACT-CHECK DENYING THE EXISTENCE OF ANTIFA GROUPS

Newsweek roasted after publishing fact-check denying existence of Antifa groups
Alexander Hall - Yesterday 8:37 PM

Twitter users scorched Newsweek after it fact-checked Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, for condemning "Antifa riots."

An episode of The View posted Monday featured Cruz debating The View’s hosts on the existence of left-wing political violence. After Cruz called out the "Antifa riots" from 2020, host Whoopi Goldberg replied "I don't know what an Antifa riot is."

While the piece acknowledged that over a thousand businesses were damaged in Minneapolis and there were "reports of fires after Floyd protests" in places such as Washington D.C., St. Louis, Seattle, and more, it took issue with the senator’s wording.

"While many businesses were damaged or destroyed as a result of arson, Cruz's characterization that ‘cities’ burned for a year is significantly stretching the truth, even if taken figuratively," the fact-check wrote.
