The New York Times has faced intense backlash over its report about the history of Mount Rushmore. Ahead of President Trump's scheduled Fourth of July celebration at the national monument, the Times ran a report with the headline "How Mount Rushmore Became Mount Rushmore," which outlined how the upcoming event "invited even more scrutiny" regarding the landmark's history. However, it was a tweet from the Times that summarized an unflattering depiction of Mount Rushmore that really raised eyebrows on social media. "Now, the woke mob at the New York Times is coming after Mount Rushmore. Now he's holding a rally glorifying white supremacy at Mount Rushmore- a region once sacred to tribal communities."
