New York Magazine faced backlash for cropping Black attendees out of a photo from a Trump party. This has led to accusations of promoting a false narrative about the event’s racial makeup.

Brock Colyar’s report highlighted a new generation of conservatives, described as young and well-connected, who are gaining influence in Washington.

CJ Pearson criticized New York Magazine for excluding him and other attendees of color from the story, claiming it undermined their narrative.

New York Magazine defended its cover, stating it accurately reflects the event, while critics argue it misrepresents the diversity of Trump’s supporters.
