Columnist Joe Klein recently accused The Factor of "trying to gin up a race war by blaming Black Lives Matter for the police shooting." Klein entered the No Spin Zone to defend those incendiary words. "You can be as critical as you want of Black Lives Matter," he said, "but to say they have caused the shootings of police officers is a bridge too far. Even Charles Krauthammer warned you that you were going too far. There is a line that you can't cross." The Factor tried set the record straight: "I said their provocations lead to a climate that is hateful toward the police, I didn't say they caused murders. I reported accurately every time on Black Lives Matter and you made a mistake when you said I am trying to gin up a race war."
