White House and CNN Clash with Fox News over Anti-Semitic Remarks

The White House has condemned Fox News for the second time in two days, this time over remarks made by host Mark Levin about two CNN anchors. Levin called Wolf Blitzer and Jake Tapper "self-hating Jews" and made derogatory comments about their coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. The White House spokesperson criticized Fox News for aligning with hate and paying the salaries of those who fan its flames. CNN called Levin's comments "wildly uninformed, inappropriate, and shameful," while the White House emphasized the need to denounce antisemitic rhetoric. This comes after Fox News host Jesse Watters made comments seemingly advocating violence against Arab Americans. The White House called on Fox News to stop promoting hate and stand against antisemitism and Islamophobia.
