Fox Nation’s ‘Riot Inc.’ follows the money to find who’s funding protest unrest in America
A closer look at protest funding
Will Cain’s new Fox Nation special investigates who may be financing protests in the United States. It focuses on wealthy benefactors, activist networks and alleged foreign influence. The program asks how political grievances may become coordinated campaigns. It explores that question across several kinds of demonstrations, rather than focusing on a single event.
Demonstrations in the spotlight
The special examines anti-ICE demonstrations, pro-Palestinian rallies and broader protests against government. It considers whether organized groups and financial support may help sustain these activities. One image accompanying the report shows pro-Palestinian protesters gathering outside Old Main at Arizona State University in Tempe on April 26, 2024. They set up encampments at about 8:45 a.m. and soon encountered police presence.
Warnings from Cain and Luna
Cain characterized the issue as a domestic terror threat backed by billionaire funding. The special presents his warning amid its examination of donors and activist organizations. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, a Florida Republican, also urged attention to what she called the “red-green alliance.” She said it should be maintained and monitored, according to the special.
