White House denounces Fox News for anti-Semitic attack on CNN anchors

The White House has condemned Fox News for "standing up on behalf of hate" after one of its hosts, Mark Levin, attacked the Jewish heritage of two CNN anchors. Levin falsely claimed that Wolf Blitzer's parents were not victims of the Holocaust, despite the fact that they were survivors of Nazi concentration camps. He also labeled both Blitzer and Jake Tapper as "self-hating Jews." CNN denounced Levin's comments as "wildly uninformed, inappropriate, and shameful," while the White House criticized Fox News for allowing such rhetoric. This marks the second time this week that the Biden administration has publicly condemned the network for its hosts' commentary.
