[See NewsBusters for more.] As part of MSNBC's Election Day 2021 preview on Tuesday, Andrea Mitchell labeled Glenn Youngkin a "textbook case" of a dishonest culture warrior who is pushing fake issues like opposition to Critical Race Theory.
Mitchell's accusation against Youngkin sounded like something out of the Terry McAuliffe campaign, "the issue of abortion, now in the suburbs, with suburban women in particular because its front and center in the Supreme Court, because of Texas, that’s become an issue. Education, Glenn Youngkin is almost a textbook case of someone who has taken a cultural issue, and arguably distorted it, that is the accusation and according to all of our fact checking, you know, Critical Race Theory is not taught in Virginia schools, it’s not a big deal, but it’s become, you know, a cause of outrage in so many school boards."
