“The level of misinformation, disinformation, and lies about the Rittenhouse matter continues to be stunning. Multiple prominent celebrities, reporters, politicians, and others claimed after the trial that he had traveled across state lines. That wasn’t true. They claimed he wasn’t lawfully allowed to carry that gun. That wasn’t true. They claimed he had no ties to the area. That wasn’t true. They claimed he attacked first. That wasn’t true. They claimed he provoked the attacks on him. That wasn’t true. They claimed he was tied to white supremacists. That wasn’t true. The Independent, a prominent news outlet, claimed Rittenhouse killed black men. That wasn’t true.”
