Over the past several weeks, the media attacks against Jordan Peterson have seemed to escalate.

There are numerous reports accusing Jordan Peterson of being alt-right, but some go beyond that,

accusing him of actively aligning with fascist ideologies. The stories are absolutely ridiculous.

And I've always wondered why is it that media organizations think they can decide what your politics are for you.

Let me just say it right now. It took me 30 seconds to find out that not only is Jordan Peterson not alt-right,

he's actually at odds with the alt-right, has spoken out against them, and has even denied being a run-of-the-mill right-winger.

So why is it then that these media companies are trying to smear his name?

So if you don't know, Jordan Peterson is an academic. He's a psychologist, and he has gained

widespread notoriety, he has a large fan-based mostly of young men, but that doesn't make him right-wing.

The first story I want to look at is something many people may have already seen, but it does get

bad. This one's from NBC News. And in this clip, it says, who is Jordan Peterson favorite figure

of the alt-right? Okay, first, that's not true. It says Dr. Jordan Peterson, a Canadian psychologist

in academic, has attracted a fan-base among the alt-right through his writing and lectures.

That is also, I mean, you could technically say this part's true because what constitutes a fan-base?

Is 10 people a fan base? If there are people within the alt-right, three or four of them,

and they create a little group, is that a fan-base? You know, the question is how long is a piece of

string? So sure, technically, you could say that's true, but I think it is entirely disingenuous.

It's not going to be disingenuous. It's not going to be disingenuous.
