The Daily Caller has revealed a documentary delving into the alarming trend of hate crime hoaxes gripping America, as evident in the case of Morgan Bettinger.
Bettinger was accused of racism, then endured years of relentless scrutiny and attacks despite the falsehood of the allegations.
The once ordinary college student found herself thrust into the spotlight after an unfortunate encounter with a Black Lives Matter (BLM) activist dramatically altered her life trajectory.
Daily Caller’s Kate Anderson covered Bettinger’s story from its inception, detailing that a rally organized by a feminist offshoot of BLM on July 17, 2020 took place near a campus drawing hundreds of protesters who blocked a street.
Bettinger found herself caught in the commotion while driving home from work.
The college girl was blocked in an intersection by a dump truck. She soon got out of her car to express gratitude to the truck driver for preventing potential accidents involving protesters. However, protestors told a different story.
Conflicting narratives swiftly emerged regarding Morgan’s interaction with the protesters.
UVA student activist Zyana Bryant alleged that Morgan made threatening remarks, claiming she said, “make good f–king speed bumps.”
Bryant shared a video of the incident on social media which quickly gained traction despite the specific comments she accused Morgan of making were not captured in the footage.
Bettinger faced intense online harassment and scrutiny from university authorities and local media following Bryant’s accusations.
She was labeled with derogatory terms such as “Nazi” and “racist,” and her personal information was exposed online.
The backlash extended to her academic and social life, with students refusing to engage with her, both in-person and virtually.
Local media outlets amplified Bryant’s version of events, portraying Bettinger’s alleged comments as a “chilling and violent” threat.
Daily Caller stated that Bettinger was not given an opportunity to present her side of the story until university investigators intervened.
Witness testimonies eventually failed to corroborate Bryant’s claims, leading the university to dismiss the allegations against Bettinger. However, responding to pressure from Bryant, the university subjected Bettinger to further scrutiny by a student panel which still deemed her insensitive to the issues advocated by the BLM movement.
Bettinger was handed a sentence of community service, re-education classes, and faced probationary expulsion, tarnishing her academic record permanently. Meanwhile, Bryant continued to enjoy professional success, securing partnerships with prominent companies.
Daily Caller argued that instances of hate crime hoaxes mirroring Bettinger’s ordeal have become distressingly prevalent in American society.
Cases like Jussie Smollet’s staged assault, Bubba Wallace’s garage door incident, and the disputed “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” narrative involving Michael Brown have garnered significant attention and subsequent debunking, per the outlet.
It then panned to Bettinger and her situation, highlighting her story as one of the lesser-known examples of Americans suffering without the glare of media scrutiny.
Individuals like Bettinger must face an uphill battle to clear their names as a result, the outlet added.
Daily Caller’s documentary titled “Demand for Hate” uses meticulous investigation to shed light on Bettinger’s experience, highlighting the profound repercussions when truth is overshadowed by political agendas.
The outlet believes that by shedding light on Bettinger’s ordeal, there’s an endeavor to restore integrity and fairness to narratives often distorted by ideological agendas.
