Why do we at RedState do our best to debunk false narratives? Because they do so much damage not only in driving people’s perspective, but sadly, they also affect how law enforcement does its job.
Case in point: The January 6 unrest and Officer Brian Sicknick. Bonchie, ShipwreckedCrew, Nick Arama, and our other contributors have not only followed how the false narrative that Officer Sicknick was struck by the Capitol rioters with a fire extinguisher and killed started, but how it was continually reinforced by legacy media.
As the investigation disproved the narrative, the media had to do walk backs. Shipwreckedcrew wrote about that walking back by the New York Times and CNN:
The story claiming that a police officer was murdered by Trump supporters during the Capitol Hill protest on January 6 is, for all practical purposes, retracted by the NYT the day after Pres. Trump is acquitted on the impeachment charge of having instigated those protests — which were declared by Democrats and the media an “insurrection” against the government.
If you search for the original NYT story today, you find the following “Note” now at the top:

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
