AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
California's Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom claimed that his office had never used the term "Latinx" during a recent interview, but a Fox News Digital review found this claim to be false.
"By the way, not one person ever in my office has ever used the word Latinx," Newsom said in his viral podcast episode with Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
"I just didn’t even know where it came from. What are people talking about?" he added.
