Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said that CNN tried to create conflict in Ferguson, Missouri, during the protests and riots that followed the death of Michael Brown. He is obviously and undeniably correct.

The Black Lives Matter activism and protests that were born in Ferguson were built on a lie. In 2014, Michael Brown was shot while in the act of attacking police officer Darren Wilson, who acted in self-defense. Brown had started a physical confrontation with Wilson and tried to seize Wilson’s gun. A grand jury would later decline to charge Wilson with any crime, and former President Barack Obama’s Department of Justice, led by then-Attorney General Eric Holder, determined that Wilson acted in self-defense.
