Feminist author Naomi Wolf offered a formal apology to conservatives who "put America first" after reviewing newly-released footage of the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot.
"Peaceful Republicans and conservatives as a whole have been demonized by the story told by Democrats in leadership of what happened that day," Wolf said in a lengthy post on Substack Thursday.
"Republicans, conservatives, I am sorry. I also believed wholesale so much else that has since turned out not to be as I was told it was by NPR, MSNBC and the New York Times," Wolf also said.
"Anyone in leadership who misrepresented to the public the events of the day so as to distort the complexity of its actual history — must also be held accountable," she added.
Wolf compared the release of the new January 6 footage to Daniel Ellsberg's release of the Pentagon Papers, noting that Leftists lionized the latter while condemning the former.
Wolf, a "lifelong liberal and civil libertarian" is a prominent feminist, author, commentator, and periodic guest on Fox News Channel shows.
She was a figurehead of 1990s "third wave feminism" and was once a "Democratic Party insider," according to Business Insider.
Wolf's "impeccable" Democratic Party bonafides came into question when "The Beauty Myth" author gave an interview to Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson in 2021 and later appeared on Steve Bannon's "WarRoom" podcast, the outlet also said.

Naomi, you are not competent.
You are not credible.
No, no, no.
A “Democratic party insider”? More like a washed-up failed academic seeking attention.
She is sooooo canceled.
Yeah I don’t know if I can trust people like this.
Dick Morris is another one.....now has a gig at Newsmax. SMH
I trust that snake about as far as I can throw my truck.
Peirce Morgan too for that matter.
Who’s Afraid of Naomi Wolf?
People should read this. Too bad more Dems, especially the media themselves, don’t have the integrity to do the same.
