A coverage timeline of the events leading up to the January 6th Capitol Hill riot

We believe that context is crucial, so we've assembled a coverage timeline of important but not universally reported events that led up to the January 6th Capitol Hill riot. It is easy, almost unavoidable, to see a pattern if we block out anything that doesn't fit it. Try reading the stories on just one side, then just the other side, then altogether. See if you can put yourself in the shoes of someone who came to a very different set of beliefs that you did.

Click on each story to dive deeper and compare how outlets covered the event.
