Andy Ngo Next Arrow.svg

Andy Cuong Ngo (born c. 1986) is an American journalist, author, and social media commentator known for his coverage of political protests, particularly those involving anti-fascist groups and conservative activists. As senior editor for The Post Millennial, a Canadian conservative news outlet, he contributes to publications like New York Post and The Wall Street Journal and frequently appears on Fox News. His 2021 book, Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy, a New York Times bestseller, details his perspective on anti-fascist tactics, drawing both support and criticism.[1] Ngo’s on-the-ground reporting, often shared through social media with a large conservative following, has amplified his focus on political activism and street violence, leading to viral attention and physical attacks during protests.

Ngo’s work, particularly on anti-fascist groups and Muslim communities, has been polarizing. Critics, including The Oregonian and Columbia Journalism Review, accuse him of selective reporting and misleading narratives, alleging ties to conservative groups like the Proud Boys, while supporters argue he exposes underreported political extremism.[2][3] His protest coverage, including assaults in 2019 and 2021, has fueled debates over journalistic ethics and bias, prompting legal actions against alleged anti-fascist assailants and congressional testimonies on domestic extremism.[4] Born in Portland, Oregon, to Vietnamese immigrants, Ngo’s experiences have shaped his center-right worldview, leading him to relocate to London in 2021 citing safety concerns.[5]

Early life

Andy Cuong Ngo was born in 1986 in Portland, Oregon, to Vietnamese parents who fled Vietnam as Vietnamese boat people in 1978 after enduring forced labor and re-education camps under the communist government.[6] His mother came from a middle-class family that operated a jewelry business, while his father was a police officer in a small Vietnamese town.[6] They met in a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees camp in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia, before resettling in the United States in 1979.[7]

Raised in a Buddhist household, Ngo converted to Christianity during high school but later adopted atheism, expressing skepticism toward organized religion.[8] His early social media posts included critical remarks about religion, which he later stated no longer reflected his views.[2] In the mid-2010s, he came out as gay while visiting relatives ...

From Wikipedia
Andy Ngo Next Arrow.svg

Andy Cuong Ngo (/n/ n-oh; born 1986/1987)[9] is an American right-wing social media influencer,[10] who is known for covering and video-recording demonstrators.[11] He is a journalist and editor-at-large for The Post Millennial, a Canadian conservative news website,[12] and a regular guest on Fox News.[13] Ngo has published columns in the New York Post[14] and The Wall Street Journal[15] and authored a best-selling book on antifa.

Ngo's coverage of antifa and Muslims has been controversial, and the accuracy and credibility of his reporting have been disputed by journalists. He has been accused of sharing misleading or selective material,[16][17][18] and has been described as a provocateur.[19][20]

Early life and education

Ngo was born and raised in Portland, Oregon.[9] His parents fled Vietnam in 1978 as Vietnamese boat people.[21] His mother came from an educated middle-class family that ran a jewelry business.[21] His father had been a police officer in a small coastal town in Vietnam.[21] In one interview, he said his parents were forced into labor and re-education camps by the Communist government;[22] in another he said his mother's family were thrown into a labour camp when his mother was 16, while his father's job in the police was "a good job during the war, but one that could easily get you shot afterward."[9] His parents first met amid a six-month stay at a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees camp near Tanjungpinang, Indonesia, prior to their arrival in the United States in 1979.[23]

Raised in a Buddhist family, Ngo converted to Christianity in high school.[22] After a period of time as an evangelical Christian, he became disillusioned and took an interest in skepticism. He subsequently became an atheist,[22] and was strongly against organized religion, which was reflected in his social media activity in the form of what Ngo later described as "inflammatory language", with Reddit comments such as "Islam needs to be neutered like Christianity".[18] In 2019, Ngo said that his earlier social media activity "represented my simplistic views at the time" and that his comments no longer represented his beliefs.[18]

According to one interviewer, Ngo speaks with trace of an English accent, "developed from living in the UK for several years as a teen".[24] While attending the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Ngo volunteered with AmeriCorps.[21] He graduated from UCLA in 2009 with a graphic design degree.[22] After graduation, he experienced a period of unemployment and worked as a photographer ...

Leo Tolstoy

"Reason has discovered the struggle for existence and the law that I must throttle all those who hinder the satisfaction of my desires. That is the deduction reason makes. But the law of loving others could not be discovered by reason, because it is unreasonable."
