Dr. John Lott appeared on WBT Charlotte’s The Brett Winterble Show to discuss rising political violence and how it is being interpreted across media and public discourse. Dr. Lott framed recent incidents, including threats against public figures, as part of a broader trend of escalating hostility over the past several years. He also argued that media coverage often misclassifies or selectively reports politically motivated violence, pointing to examples where attackers’ stated ideologies don’t align with how they’re labeled.
