<p>Ana Kasparian, a left-wing co-host on &#8220;The Young Turks,&#8221; apologized this week for promoting false claims about Florida Governor Ron DeSantis&#8217; handling of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/covid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">COVID</a> pandemic.</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to correct all of those errors that we had previously reported,&#8221; Kasparian said. &#8220;And I want to be clear that out of everyone who works on the main show, the only person who should be held responsible for that is me. I&#8217;m the executive producer of the show, and I screwed up royally. And part of the reason why I screwed up is because I had all these biases, of course, against Ron DeSantis.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kasparian said that she did not feel bad about having biases against DeSantis because she does not agree with everything that he has done as governor.</p>
<p>&#8220;But it becomes a problem when that bias blinds you to what the facts of various stories happen to be,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And I should have done my due diligence. I failed to do so.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kasparian then revealed that she was specifically talking about <a href="https://wusfnews.wusf.usf.edu/health-news-florida/2022-05-28/ig-report-finds-rebekah-jones-claims-of-covid-19-manipulation-to-be-unsubstantiated-and-unfounded" target="_blank" rel="noopener">discredited</a> conspiracy theorist Rebekah Jones, a twice-failed Democrat congressional candidate who was <a href="https://twitter.com/damintoell/status/1645990458458357762" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fired</a> by the DeSantis administration.</p>
<p>&#8220;And by failing to do so, I feel like I&#8217;ve misled the audience into thinking that Rebecca Jones is some sort of hero,&#8221; Kasparian said. &#8220;Now, to be fair to myself, and to be fair to other independent media sources, if you&#8217;re not doing your own original reporting, you&#8217;re relying on the mainstream media narrative a lot of the time, and if they&#8217;re not doing their due diligence, if they&#8217;re allowing their personal biases to stand in the way of actual factual reporting, well, that&#8217;s unfortunately going to trickle into the way independent news sources cover these types of stories as well.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Fact of the matter is, I want to make sure that I correct my errors,&#8221; she added. &#8220;I get you guys accurate information, and I avoid helping someone who might be a grifter, from fundraising off of our own audience members.&#8221;</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ana Kasparian admits that TYT didn&#39;t fact check the Rebekah Jones nonsense due to her not liking DeSantis &amp; wanting to get him.
