Whoopi Goldberg suspended from ‘The View’ following Holocaust comments
Jesse O’Neill
Whoopi Goldberg was suspended from ABC’s “The View” Tuesday evening after she claimed the Holocaust was “not about race.”
“Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for her wrong and hurtful comments,” ABC News President Kim Godwin tweeted.
“While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.”
Goldberg, 66, claimed Nazis and Jews were both white on Monday’s program, and repeated the statement on “Late Night With Steven Colbert that evening.” She walked back the remarks on Twitter later that night amid widespread outrage.
“As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, ‘The Holocaust was about the Nazi’s systematic annihilation of the Jewish people — who they deemed to be an inferior race.’ I stand corrected,” she wrote.Her suspension from the talk show came as some ABC insiders insisted that her apology wasn’t enough and demanded she be fired.

Amen. If the same standards applied to that racist b**ch as they do to conservatives she’d never work again.

Just stating facts. I don’t personally care if they fire her or not. I have the ability to turn the channel. Just pointing out the hypocrisy.

That's the right attitude...
And there isn't any hypocrisy...
They turn on their own just as readily as they go after conservatives...
On the other hand, right wingers cheering for censorship is about as hypocritical as it gets...

Are you saying if a white conservative on Fox had said this democrats wouldn’t demand they be fired? Hell, probably jailed for hate speech.

Yes...They would demand consequences...
And they punish their own as well...
Plenty of lefties want Whoopi fired...
That's not hypocrisy...
The Left is remaining true to its "ethics"...
The right on the other hand

I'm just curious....is anti-Semitism being racist? Is Jewish a race? I thought it was a religion, like Catholic or Baptist... There is the white race, black race, red race, etc.
I guess I never thought of Judaism as a race. I'm just wondering if she was being anti-Semitic instead of racist.
Either way, she should be fired, not just suspended.

Judaism is the ethnic religion of the Jewish people.

What right-wingers are cheering for censorship? They are cheering for accountability.
Funny how the woke are running out of people to attack, so they now have to turn on their own. Typical of any leftist movement.
