This May Be the Worst Media Gaslighting About the Minneapolis Shooting Yet

Matt Margolis : Aug 29, 2025  PJ Media

The Minneapolis shooting wasn't random. A transgender-identifying man who openly despised Christians and conservatives was responsible. Yet instead of reporting the truth, the media twisted itself into knots to protect its preferred narrative. That's not journalism; it's propaganda...

This wasn't just a random tragedy. It was a brutal attack during a mass marking the start of the school year at a Catholic school, in which two children lost their lives and 17 other people, including 14 students, were wounded.

The assailant was a transgender individual named Robert "Robin" Westman, who had direct ties to the school: His mother retired from working there just a few years ago. Westman came armed with a manifesto and a cache of weapons.

Yet, the coverage was anything but straightforward. It's been a case study of how the media gaslights the public when a big story doesn't fit their preferred narrative.

PJ Media previously reported that one of the shooter's magazines bore the chilling message "kill Donald Trump." However, ABC News reduced the violent intention behind those words, reporting vaguely that the shooter had written "the name of President Trump" on the firearms. It was as if they deliberately obscured the hostile meaning, almost insinuating the shooter was somehow a Trump supporter.

Then there's the baffling narrative spun by MSNBC, which bizarrely suggested the shooter was not radicalized by his documented hatred of Christians and conservatives but by his upbringing, the aftereffects of COVID, and even video games.

But USA Today's coverage truly takes the cake for its shameless gaslighting.

Not only did the paper not mention the attacker's identity or his transgender status—a detail central to understanding the complexity of this case—it pivoted hard to link the shooting to motives that better fit the preferred left-wing narrative... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
