Fact check: Several news outlets inaccurately reported a key detail of a story told by former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, in the book he released last week, about then-President Donald Trump and protesters

Washington Several news outlets inaccurately reported a key detail of a story told by former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows in the book he released last week,"The Chief's Chief."

These news outlets got much of the story right: Meadows wrote that then-President Donald Trump had told him one day last year to"bust some heads and make some arrests" of protesters in Lafayette Square park near the White House. But the outlets got the date of the story wrong -- wrongly claiming Meadows wrote that Trump had issued this directive on June 1, 2020, before his controversial photo op outside St. John's Church.
