Known forCoverage of political protests, Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy

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 in rural Vietnam.[6]

Education

Ngo graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2009 with a degree in graphic design, having volunteered with AmeriCorps during his studies.[6][8] After graduation, he faced unemployment and briefly worked as a photographer at a used car dealership.[8] In 2013, he began volunteering as a photographer for the Center for Inquiry in Portland.[2] In 2015, Ngo enrolled in a master’s program at Portland State University (PSU) in political science, focusing on international relations and comparative politics.[9][8] At PSU, he joined the Freethinkers of Portland State University, a student group collaborating with professor Peter Boghossian to promote open discourse.[8][2]

PSU Vanguard (2016–2017)

While at Portland State University, Ngo served as a multimedia editor for the student newspaper, Portland State Vanguard.[2] In 2016, he reported on a Don’t Shoot Portland protest where an individual brandished a firearm at demonstrators.[10] In April 2017, Ngo was dismissed from the Vanguard after posting a video clip from an interfaith dialogue panel at PSU on his personal social media account. The clip featured a Muslim student discussing apostasy penalties in some Islamic legal systems, which Ngo summarized as stating that “apostates will be killed or banished in an Islamic state.”[9] The post, amplified by Breitbart News, sparked online controversy.[9] The Vanguard editor, Colleen Leary, fired Ngo, citing a violation of journalistic ethics for oversimplifying the student’s remarks to provoke reaction, denying partisan motives.[9] Ngo argued in a National Review op-ed, “Fired for Reporting the Truth,” that his dismissal reflected censorship trends.[11] He discussed the incident on the /r/The_Donald subreddit, describing it as an example of political correctness.[12]

Writing career

In 2017, Ngo began contributing to national outlets, including National Review and The Wall Street Journal, focusing on political activism and protests.[8] His 2021 book, Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy, became a New York Times bestseller, detailing his experiences covering anti-fascist groups and their tactics.[1][13] As senior editor at The Post Millennial, Ngo reports on political and social issues, often sharing his work through social media platforms to engage a wide audience.[14] The book’s release and promotion sparked protests and critical reviews, discussed below.

Unmasked

In January 2021, the online pre-sale of Ngo’s book, Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy, prompted a small protest outside Powell's Books in Portland, Oregon.[15] Powell’s offered the book online but chose not to stock it in stores or promote it.[16] The book became an Amazon bestseller before release and ranked third on The New York Times Best Seller list for nonfiction and first on Publishers Weekly’s hardcover nonfiction list for the week of February 14, 2021.[15][17] Ngo framed Unmasked as a tribute to the United States, citing his parents’ escape from Vietnam’s communist regime, but critics challenged its accuracy.[18] Alexander Nazaryan of the Los Angeles Times called it “supremely dishonest,” arguing it exaggerated the threat of anti-fascist groups while resembling “propaganda.”[18] Kirkus Reviews likened it to material appealing to QAnon supporters.[19] Shane Dixon Kavanaugh of The Oregonian noted “serious omissions, errors and false equivalencies” that concerned experts tracking extremist movements.[5] In March 2021, Winston Marshall, banjoist of Mumford & Sons, praised Unmasked on Twitter, calling Ngo “brave,” but faced backlash, leading him to delete the tweet and temporarily leave the band to “examine my blindspots.” In June 2021, Marshall permanently left the band, retracted his apology, and defended the book’s depiction of extremism.[20]

Campus event coverage (2017–2018)

In January 2017, Ngo, through the Freethinkers of PSU, helped organize a campus event featuring Dave Rubin, Peter Boghossian, and Christina Hoff Sommers.[21] Ngo reported that Rose City Antifa launched a social media campaign to pressure administrators to cancel the event, though it proceeded as planned.[21] On February 17, 2018, Ngo and the Freethinkers of PSU hosted an event with James Damore, a former Google engineer fired for his controversial memo, “Google's Ideological Echo Chamber,” which the company deemed discriminatory.[12][22] Ngo wrote in a The Wall Street Journal op-ed that threats of violence on social media led campus police to deny a larger venue.[23] During the event, some attendees walked out in protest, and one attempted to disrupt the audio system.[12][22] Journalist Jason Wilson of The Guardian suggested the event was designed to provoke Portland’s progressive activists, noting Ngo’s videos often gained traction in conservative media circles.[12] Ngo later covered the incident in Quillette, and it was discussed by commentator Tim Pool.[12] On March 5, 2018, Ngo filmed a talk by Christina Hoff Sommers at Lewis & Clark Law School, hosted by a student group. Sommers, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, is known for critiquing aspects of the women's movement. Student protesters disrupted the event with chants and music, forcing it to end early.[24][25] Ngo shared photos and videos of the disruption, citing it as an example of “illiberal reactions” that limit free thought.[24][25]

International reporting (2018)

In August 2018, Andy Ngo published an op-ed titled “A Visit to Islamic England” in The Wall Street Journal, describing his observations in two East London neighborhoods, including visits to a mosque and an Islamic center.[26] He argued that these areas reflected challenges with multiculturalism in London.[26] Ngo initially linked alcohol-free zones to Muslim-majority populations but issued a correction, noting such zones exist in various English neighborhoods regardless of demographics.[26][27] Critics, including Alex Lockie of Business Insider, accused Ngo of misrepresenting the area near the East London Mosque and selectively presenting evidence to exaggerate cultural tensions.[28] Steve Hopkins of HuffPost reported that local officials and campaigners disputed some of Ngo’s claims, arguing they misrepresented the community.[29] In October 2018, Ngo launched a podcast, Things You Should Ngo, featuring interviews with commentators such as Jordan Peterson, Dave Rubin, and Carl Benjamin (known online as “Sargon of Akkad”).[8]

Protest coverage (2017–2019)

Starting in 2017, Ngo began livestreaming and reporting on rallies organized by Patriot Prayer, a Portland-based conservative group known for pro-gun and pro-Trump events that sometimes escalated into violence.[8][30] These rallies, occasionally attended by other conservative activists, were often met with counter-protests by Portland’s anti-fascist and anarchist groups, some of whom engaged in direct action, including violent confrontations.[8][31] In November 2018, Ngo livestreamed the Him Too rally, organized by a Patriot Prayer member in Portland, during which he was sprayed with silly string and confronted by anti-fascist protesters.[32][33] By 2019, Ngo regularly attended and livestreamed Portland protests, sharing footage on social media.[34]

May Day 2019

On May 1, 2019, Ngo covered International Workers' Day demonstrations and counter-protests in Portland.[35] He reported being punched and sprayed with bear spray while filming two events, including a clash between anti-fascist activists and Patriot Prayer members outside the Cider Riot pub.[36] A Bellingcat report noted that Ngo’s social media posts portrayed the incident as an unprovoked attack by anti-fascists.[37] Footage showed Ngo present while Patriot Prayer members planned an attack on anti-fascists after the protests, though he did not report on their actions.[2][37] Five members of Patriot Prayer, including leader Joey Gibson, were charged with felony riot incitement for their roles in the May Day events.[38]

Proud Boys rally incident (2019)

On June 29, 2019, Andy Ngo covered a rally in Portland organized by the Proud Boys, a pro-Trump group, which was met with counter-protests by left-wing activists.[39] While filming, Ngo was attacked by counter-protesters, who punched, kicked, and threw a milkshake at him.[39][40] Ngo attributed the assault to anti-fascist protesters, though no individual attackers were identified.[39] He livestreamed the incident, during which a medic attended to him, and the video gained widespread attention online.[41] The Southern Poverty Law Center, which designates the Proud Boys as a hate group, noted the rally led to a follow-up event by the group, the End Domestic Terrorism rally, on August 17, 2019.[42][43] Medical examiners diagnosed Ngo with a subarachnoid hemorrhage from the attack.[8][32] He retained attorney Harmeet Dhillon to investigate the Portland Police Bureau’s response.[44] Texas Senator Ted Cruz called for a federal investigation into Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, who oversees the police, while 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang expressed support for Ngo’s recovery.[45][46] Media coverage of the incident was polarized, with analyses in The Atlantic and Commentary reflecting differing perspectives on the event.[47][32]

Patriot Prayer video and Quillette departure (2019)

On August 26, 2019, the Portland Mercury published a report citing a video showing Ngo present with Patriot Prayer members on May 1, 2019, as they planned an attack on anti-fascist patrons at the Cider Riot bar in Portland.[48] The video, part of court documents in a lawsuit against Patriot Prayer members for inciting a riot, showed Ngo smiling and laughing at times while with the group.[48][32] During the subsequent attack, one patron was knocked unconscious and suffered a broken vertebra; Ngo later posted a video of the assault, identifying the victim online.[49] The Portland Mercury quoted an undercover anti-fascist source alleging Ngo had an “understanding” with Patriot Prayer, implying mutual protection, and suggested he knew of their violent intentions.[48] Ngo denied foreknowledge of the attack in a The Spectator article, stating he was preoccupied with his phone and only caught “snippets of conversations.”[50] Robby Soave of Reason supported Ngo’s claim, arguing the video lacked evidence of his complicity.[38] On the same day, Ngo’s name was removed from Quillette’s masthead and its mention from his social media profile.[51] Quillette editor Claire Lehmann told The Daily Beast that Ngo’s departure occurred weeks earlier and was unrelated to the video.[51] Ngo’s attorney sent a letter to the Portland Mercury demanding a retraction of its claims, which the outlet declined, standing by its reporting.[48]

Subsequent reporting (2019–2021)

In 2019, Ngo published a series in the New York Post claiming that several hate crimes reported to Portland police were fabricated.[15] He contributed to Quillette as a sub-editor and photojournalist until his departure in August 2019.[34][51] By June 2020, Ngo joined The Post Millennial, a conservative Canadian news outlet, as senior editor.[52][53] Ngo frequently appeared on Fox News, discussing concerns about left-wing activism on over two dozen occasions by February 2021.[5] He wrote opinion pieces for The Wall Street Journal, but in July 2020, nearly 300 of the newspaper’s newsroom staff criticized the opinion desk’s fact-checking and transparency, citing Ngo’s work among other issues.[54] Some media outlets, including The Oregonian and Jacobin, described Ngo as a conservative provocateur, while BuzzFeed News characterized his work as “media activism” involving “participant reporting.”[34][55][8] New York magazine cited him as an example of “busybody journalism,” and Cathy Young in The Bulwark criticized him for “outrage mining” after he reposted tweets mocking France following the Notre-Dame de Paris fire in April 2019.[56][57] In May 2021, while covering the one-year anniversary of Portland protests for a follow-up chapter to Unmasked, Ngo reported being recognized despite a disguise, chased by five to ten protesters, and assaulted.[58] He stated the group attempted to unmask him, tackled, and punched him before he fled into The Nines hotel.[59] Ngo’s practice of sharing protesters’ personal information, such as mugshots, on social media has drawn criticism, with some protesters claiming it leads to harassment and threats, viewing him as a danger.[58][60]

Online presence

Andy Ngo has built a significant social media following, focusing on coverage of civil unrest, particularly in Portland, Oregon, following the murder of George Floyd.[61] By October 2020, Politico reported he had approximately 800,000 followers, describing him as a key source for conservative audiences seeking news on the Black Lives Matter movement.[61] In December 2021, The Intercept noted he had 940,000 Twitter followers.[62] In December 2019, The Oregonian named Ngo one of Oregon’s top 15 newsmakers of 2019, citing his assault, rising prominence in conservative circles, and sharing of edited videos to his then-270,000 Twitter followers, which they claimed spread “inaccurate claims and limited context.”[63] President Trump referenced Ngo at rallies starting in July 2019.[64] In November 2020, a viral video by Ngo was recirculated by Trump after the Million MAGA March.[37][65] In August 2020, the Southern Poverty Law Center, in an interview with philosopher Jason Stanley, claimed Ngo misrepresented facts, with his content often going viral.[66] Stanley argued Ngo promotes a “false equivalence” between left- and right-wing violence, noting that right-wing violence had caused hundreds of deaths since 1990, while anti-fascist groups had not been linked to fatalities as of August 2020.[66] In September 2020, Harvard’s Joan Donovan, writing for MIT Technology Review, described Ngo as one of two conservative media figures sharing edited protest videos to provoke outrage, labeling such content “riot porn.”[67]

Privacy controversies

In 2019, Ngo labeled journalists Shane Burley and Alexander Reid Ross as “antifa ideologues” on social media.[68] Burley and Ross reported receiving death threats afterward, with Burley telling Jacobin that Ngo’s posts targeted ideological opponents, potentially inciting harassment.[68][55] Vox’s Zack Beauchamp claimed Ngo revealed a political activist’s full name in 2019, exposing them to potential harassment.[69] Ngo has shared mugshots of Portland arrestees on Twitter, prompting some protesters to claim this leads to harassment and threats.[70]

Journalistic reception

Ngo’s journalistic practices have drawn significant criticism from media outlets and experts.[55][71] Critics, including Columbia Journalism Review, have accused him of selective video editing to portray anti-fascist activists as violent while downplaying actions by conservative groups, labeling him a “provocateur.”[3][72][73] BuzzFeed News described his work as “media activism,” suggesting he seeks to confirm a worldview through “participant reporting,” potentially creating a “self-fulfilling prophecy.”[8] Some sources, including Media Matters for America and Willamette Week, have alleged Ngo coordinates with conservative groups like the Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer, citing a 2019 Portland Mercury report claiming an “understanding” of mutual protection.[74][75] Brian Levin, an extremism expert at California State University, San Bernardino, noted that Ngo “makes the most out of his conflicts,” which sometimes turn violent, but added that he has not seen Ngo act as a physical aggressor in his posts.[76] Ngo has maintained he is an independent journalist, denying coordinated ties with conservative groups.[50]

Legal actions

In June 2020, Andy Ngo filed a lawsuit against individuals allegedly linked to Rose City Antifa, seeking $900,000 for assault and emotional distress, plus an injunction to prevent further harassment.[4] Represented by attorney Harmeet Dhillon, who has Republican affiliations, the suit named five defendants and unknown assailants, alleging attacks on Ngo during Portland protests on May 1, May 7, and June 29, 2019.[4][5] The lawsuit accused Rose City Antifa of engaging in a “pattern of racketeering activities.”[52] On December 15, 2020, a Multnomah County judge allowed the suit to proceed, denying a motion to dismiss.[4] Ngo testified before Congress multiple times at the invitation of Republican lawmakers, addressing domestic extremism.[5] On August 4, 2020, he appeared at a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing, “The Right of the People Peaceably to Assemble: Protecting Speech by Stopping Anarchist Violence,” where he criticized media coverage of Portland protests and Democrats for not condemning anti-fascist violence, though prosecutors found no evidence linking Portland arrestees to antifa.[77] On February 24, 2021, he testified at a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing following the 2021 US Capitol protests, focusing on domestic terrorism.[78] Democrats emphasized concerns over white supremacist violence, while Ngo blamed media for overlooking looting and rioting post-murder of George Floyd.[78][79] The Southern Poverty Law Center noted Ngo’s advocacy for designating antifa as a terrorist organization.[80]

Personal life

Ngo identifies as politically center-right.[81][82] In 2021, The Oregonian reported that he relocated to London, citing safety concerns after filing at least 10 police reports for threats against himself or his family since June 2020.[5]
