Crisis At The New York Times: Suspends All Future Syndicated Cartoons Amid Antisemitism Backlash

April 30, 2019 by Liberty Bugle Team

The Israeli ambassador to the U.S. on Monday blasted the New York Times as a “cesspool of hostility towards Israel” — as the newspaper said it has suspended publishing syndicated cartoons after they published an anti-Semitic drawing provided by a wire service.

Ambassador Ron Dermer made the strong rebuke at a Holocaust memorial event at the U.S. Capitol Monday morning.

The New York Post Reports:

“We have also seen one of the world’s most prestigious newspapers become a cesspool of hostility towards Israel that goes well beyond any legitimate criticism of a fellow, imperfect democracy,” Dermer said in his remarks. “The same New York Times that a century ago mostly hid from their readers the Holocaust of the Jewish people has today made its pages a safe-space for those who hate the Jewish state,” he added.

“Through biased coverage, slanderous columns and anti-Semitic cartoons, its editors shamefully choose week after week to cast the Jewish state as a force for evil,” Dermer said.

The cartoon that touched off a storm of criticism toward the paper depicts Benjamin Netanyahu as a dog wearing a star of David collar, leading President Trump, who is wearing black sunglasses and a black yamurkle.

The cartoon was provided to the paper by a wire service and ran in the editorial page of its international edition last Thursday. On Monday, a Times spokesperson told The Post that the paper has “suspended the future publication of syndicated cartoons.”

The Times did not immediately respond to the ambassador’s comments.
