Actor Michael Rapaport fiercely criticized The New York Times for its reporting on the Israel-Hamas war, calling it biased and unreliable. He also expressed his pro-Israel stance and critiqued past peace efforts.
Actor Michael Rapaport launched a scathing attack against The New York Times on Wednesday, accusing the paper of being untrustworthy and biased in its coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. Rapaport's ire was sparked by a report highlighting a study conducted by Yale professor Edieal Pinker which suggested that the Times' reporting fostered sympathy for the Palestinian people. In a furious online outburst, Rapaport labeled the Times a 'rotten corroded snot hole' and called for its permanent closure.
He asserted that the paper lacked journalistic integrity and should not be considered a reliable source of news. The New York Times, however, issued a statement defending its coverage, emphasizing its vast and empathetic body of work researched and written by world-class journalists. The spokesperson pointed out that their reporting adhered to exacting editorial standards and had been scrutinized by numerous studies representing diverse ideological perspectives.This incident is not Rapaport's first foray into controversial political commentary. The comedian has been vocal about his pro-Israel stance since the October 7th attacks, even expressing openness to former President Donald Trump's proposed plans for Gaza. Rapaport criticized attempts at peace negotiations in the region, stating that past approaches had failed and advocating for consideration of Trump's plan as a potential alternative. He has also denounced Democrats who compared Trump to Hitler, deeming such rhetoric as insensitive and inappropriate, particularly given the historical context of the Holocaust.
