About this episode
The corporate media lied that the riots across America during the summer of 2020 essentially were "fiery, but mostly peaceful." Americans, however, watched in horror as places such as Portland, Seattle, and Kenosha, Wisconsin, burned while radical leftists swarmed the streets. Through it all, though, one journalist braved the mobs. Townhall's Julio Rosas spent much of 2020 moving around the country, capturing footage of rioters as they looted stores, fought police, and, of course, burned buildings. Rosas is the author of the new book " Fiery (But Mostly Peaceful): The 2020 Riots and the Gaslighting of America ." Rosas joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss his book and reveal the truth that the media won't tell you about the riots.
