Right wing media frothing -at-the-mouth spin & deception. Sad, says a lot about the OP.
Now for a more accurate picture: Right wing media will absolutely never have anything positive to say about a Black female, particularly one who is intelligent and strong, and who is an advocate for criminal justice reform.

Speaking of FOX 'news' and their practice of cherry picking facts to support their story....this one involving Deputy D.A. Tiffiny Townend Blacknell in a FOX segment blasting Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón:

More on this..one of many links.. parts of this link freebeacon.com/democrats/los-angeles-da-hires-anti-police-campaign-aide-for-top-prosecutor-job/DEMOCRATS Los Angeles DA Hires Anti-Cop Activist for Top Prosecutor Job Law enforcement calls hire 'slap in the face' Los Angeles's Democratic district attorney elevated a close political ally who has referred to the city's police as "barbarians." Law enforcement officials are now criticizing D.A. George Gascón for hiring someone they say is unqualified for her position. Gascón, who became the California city's district attorney last December, confirmed this week that he hired campaign aide Tiffiny Blacknell to be a high-ranking deputy district attorney. Blacknell worked as a public defender and has no experience as a prosecutor, and her hiring has sparked immediate pushback by law enforcement members who view the hiring as "blatant cronyism." "I think it's a slap in the face to all of our members who are patiently waiting for a promotion," Eric Siddall, vice president of the city's prosecutors' union, told Fox 11 Los Angeles, which was first to report on Blacknell's hiring. "This is really about political cronyism rather than someone who actually meets the qualification standards." Her role additionally requires regularly interacting with law enforcement officials, which will be complicated by her already fraught relationship with Los Angeles police. Over the summer, Blacknell referred to the Los Angeles police officers as "barbarians" and as an "occupying army." In one of her posts, she wore a shirt that read, "The Police Are Trained to Kill Us." While Blacknell worked as a public defender, she was accused of offering a sweetheart deal to a gang murderer. While working on the case, Blacknell was accused of going behind the prosector's back and offering a plea deal to the accused murderer through his public defender. Her deal fell apart when the case's judge found out about it and criticized the deal. ================================================================================= Calling it political cronyism is like putting lipstick on a pig.

I strongly suspect much of the criticism of her is related to the fact that she is (1) "SHE" and (2) Black
