NY Times Writer Jazmine Hughes resigns After Accusing Israel of ‘Genocide’
New York Post ^ | Nov. 4, 2023 | Jon Levine

A New York Times writer has “resigned” after signing a letter falsely accusing Israel of genocide against the Palestinian people — and denouncing her own paper’s coverage of the country’s war against Hamas.

Jazmine Hughes, a staff writer for New York Times Magazine, left the publication Friday, the paper told staffers in an email obtained by The Post.

“While I respect that she has strong convictions, this was a clear violation of The Times’s policy on public protest,” said magazine editor Jake Silverstein. “This policy, which I fully support, is an important part of our commitment to independence.” “She and I discussed that her desire to stake out this kind of public position and join in public protests isn’t compatible with being a journalist at The Times, and we both came to the conclusion that she should resign,” Silverstein continued.

While I respect that she has strong convictions,

Since when are 'strong convictions' an excuse for anything.

Israel will stand Forever!

To their consternation, they are finding out that they can’t cover the news like they cover Trump, once in a while they need a little professionalism.

What is it with black women? They run their mouths, and many times say the most egregious things yet never think they will be criticized.
That loathsome vegetable Joy Reid is a perfect example.

That’s why black men prefer white women which causes the black women to go full lesbian.

I meant “she” unless there was a gender change since the thread started. Sorry.

There is only one group in this war against terrorism that believes in and practices genocide... And it isn’t the Israeli’s... It’s HAMAS, controlled by Iranians and run as front from the GAZA strip using Palestinian’s as pawns in their effort to wipe Judaism from the face of earth.

Anybody who thinks otherwise is either a fool, or a useful idiot... Ms. Hughes is the later.
