Goldberg was suspended by ABC after she made controversial comments about Jewish people and the Holocaust Monday.
Goldberg apologized on the program earlier on Tuesday, in a segment that also included an interview with Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt.
“Yesterday on the show I misspoke,” Goldberg said to open the talk show. “[The Holocaust] is indeed about race, because Hitler and the Nazis considered the Jews to be an inferior race. Now, words matter, and mine are no exception. I regret my comments and I stand corrected. I also stand with the Jewish people.”: “Let’s be truthful about it because Holocaust isn’t about race. It’s not about race. It’s not about race. It’s about man’s inhumanity to man.
Co-host Ana Navarro responded to Goldberg, saying: “But it’s about white supremacists going after Jews.“ “But these are two white groups of people!” Goldberg replied. “The minute you turn it into race it goes down this alley. Let’s talk about it for what it is. It’s how people treat each other. It doesn’t matter if you’re Black or white, Jews, it’s each other.”
Goldberg made similar comments on CBS’ Late Show Monday evening, but also released an apology on her social media feeds, saying: ” “I’m sorry for the hurt that I have caused.”
