OOPS! That Study On Trump Causing Hate Crimes That CNN Keeps Touting Has Been Debunked, But It Gets Even Better Enter a study released by the Anti-Defamation League and relentlessly pushed by the media. CNN recently re-upped the claim in an on air segment claiming that Trump’s rhetoric “resonates” with white supremacists while citing the aforementioned study. Well, now that same study has been debunked, and keep reading because it gets even better than that. NEW: Study touted by CNN that claimed hate crimes surged 226% in areas that hosted Trump rallies in 2016 has been debunked Two Harvard PhD students also found that “Clinton rallies contributed to an even greater increase in hate crimes” than Trump rallies t.co A study purporting to show that hate crimes increased 226% in counties that hosted rallies for then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016 has been officially debunked. Not only did the study’s authors fail to account for the fact that political campaigns prefer to host rallies in populous areas, which already experience more hate crimes, but the authors didn’t check to see if the same increase could be applied to Hillary Clinton’s rallies.
