NY Times tries to backpedal after publishing ‘abhorrent’ anti-Semitic cartoon in international edition
The New York Times had some explaining to do after their international edition ran a horribly offensive antisemitic cartoon:
The New York Times International Edition ran a cartoon of an apparently blind US President @realDonaldTrump wearing a yarmulke being led by a dog with a Star of David for a collar and with a face of Prime Minister @netanyahu on April 25. @nytimes https://www.jpost.com/International/New-York-Times-internationally-prints-antisemitic-cartoon-of-Trump-Netanyahu-588014 …

The Times is backpedaling, but they can’t unpublish what’s already been published:
.@nytopinion just released an initial apology for the vile Antisemitic cartoon featuring @realDonaldTrump as an Orthodox Jew and @Netanyahu as a dog published by the @nytimesworld on Thursday. A more detailed Mea Culpa APOLOGY is expected on this coming Monday

An “error in judgment,” eh?
How did even two people see this and say, “Approved. Send to press.” WUT

I love the “whoopsy doodle” tone here. Like this isn’t an absolute massacre of journalistic judgment.

Somebody obviously didn’t see that cartoon as being too offensive to publish in their paper.
Missing here is any explanation on how a blatantly antisemitic cartoon made it past the editors or what is being done to prevent it from happening again.

Awwww, an Editors note should excuse the @nytimes raging anti-Semitism. Is that it?

“Error of judgment?”
That’s a pretty gracious self determination.

Strange how errors always fall to one side...

This never should’ve made it out in the first place. It’s abhorrent

"error in judgment" = "we thought we'd run with it and see what happened. It didn't turn out like we planned."

No, it most certainly did not.
