Gab founder Andrew Torba blamed the mainstream corporate media for inciting violence against his family Wednesday, after his parents were targeted in an alleged terror attack.

“Just got a call from my parents—who are not home—their neighbor smelled gas, called the fire company,” Torba wrote on Twitter. “Someone turned on the propane tank on my parent’s gas grill, turned the burner on, and let the propane leak out.”

Someone turned on the propane tank on my parent’s gas grill, turned the burner on, and let the propane leak out.

This is terrorism, incited by the media.

Pray for us.

Describing the act as “terrorism,” Torba attributed the violence to skewed press coverage of his free speech platform Gab, which came under fire after this weekend’s deadly synagogue shooting.

“This is terrorism, incited by the media.”

Update: my parents are okay. My family is not afraid and we will not be terrorized.

Will be meeting with the local FBI to file a report on this. https://t.co/y7A6VDUxKe
