New York Times apologizes for cartoon that used 'anti-Semitic tropes,' showing Trump in skullcap and Netanyahu as a dog
The New York Times ran a cartoon in its international edition many labeled anti-Semitic, showing the Israeli prime minister as a weiner dog adorned with a Star of David dog collar leading around President Donald Trump wearing a skullcap.
The cartoon was immediately pounced on by critics across social media, which depicted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin"Bibi" Netanyahu as a dog with a Star of David collar. Standing behind him in the image is a seemingly blind Trump pulling on his leash while wearing black sunglasses, black suit and what appears to be a yarmulke atop his head.When did the @nytimes hire David Duke as an editor? pic.twitter.
"A political cartoon in the international print edition of The New York Times on Thursday included anti-Semitic tropes, depicting the prime minister of Israel as a guide dog with a Star of David collar leading the president of the United States, shown wearing a skullcap. The image was offensive, and it was an error of judgment to publish it.
