New York, NY 10036
Dear Mr. Murdoch,
I write once again to express deep alarm about the dangerous misinformation that FOX News continues to allow Tucker Carlson to express on your network and its platforms, this time in the form of a “documentary” about the insurrection on January 6.
In a trailer for “Patriot Purge,” which apparently is…

The following letter was submitted to the New York Post in response to "Forget using PayPal if your views run afoul of this left-wing group” (July 29) To the Editor:
Jonathan S. Tobin’s mischaracterization of ADL and PayPal’s partnership as an attempt to censor conservative voices is disingenuous and without any evidence (“Forget using PayPal if your views run afoul of this left-wing group,” July 29).
In truth, our partnership with PayPal will…

Fox News Channel
Dear Ms. Scott:
Last night, in a segment on his program dealing with voting rights and allegations of voter disenfranchisement, Tucker Carlson disgustingly gave an impassioned defense of the white supremacist “great replacement theory,” the hateful notion that the white race is in danger of being “replaced” by a rising tide of…

Re “I No Longer Believe in a Jewish State” (Op-Ed, July 9):
With all his soothing words about equality and blissful coexistence, Peter Beinart is calling for the elimination of the Jewish state itself. His contortions to argue that Zionism does not require an independent Jewish state are transparently false and a tactic to…
June 26, 2020 On June 17th, we asked companies to act against hate and disinformation being spread by Facebook in our campaign Stop Hate for Profit. We asked advertisers to temporarily pause advertising on Facebook and Instagram in order to force Mark Zuckerberg to address the catastrophic effect that Facebook has had on our society.
Companies have responded in waves. Unilever, Verizon, Patagonia, Ben and Jerry’s, North Face, Eileen Fisher, Viber and the list goes on and…
June 25, 2020 Last week a group of organizations launched Stop Hate for Profit with one simple goal: convince social media companies to finally put people over profit. We launched asking advertisers to join the campaign and pause their spending on Facebook and Instagram ads for the month of July 2020. You might be asking: Why Facebook? Haven’t they done better lately? What are the biggest problems you’re tracking? Why Facebook? Our partner organizations have been working with…

Dear Ms. Scott:
We were deeply disturbed by remarks of Fox News anchor Raymond Arroyo during last night’s broadcast of “The Ingraham Angle,” where he asserted that Michael Bloomberg, the Jewish former presidential candidate, will be a “Biden Puppet Master.” This charge, and the comments that followed about Bloomberg’s wealth and power, play into…
Letters to the Editor
The Wall Street Journal
Now more than ever we need strong hate crime laws to ensure that the punishment for targeting individuals or institutions for violence or vandalism for no other reason than their religious affiliation, skin color or other personal characteristic is appropriate.
Contrary to Myron Magnet’s claims, hate-crime laws punish conduct and not thought (“‘Hate Crime’ Is Only a Step Away From Thoughtcrime,” op-ed, Jan. 2…

Atlanta Journal-Constitution
To the Editor:
Michelle Malkin’s hate-filled conspiracy theories about the Anti-Defamation League are so divorced from reality that it’s hard to fathom how her most recent column found its way into The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (“ADL, antifa and Koch equal a toxic anti-Trump league,” Oct. 3). In dismissing this storied, 106-year old civil rights organization — one with deep roots in Atlanta — as…

The following letter was submitted to The Wall Street Journal in response to "Hate Crime Hoaxes Are More Common Than You Think" (June 26, 2019). This appeared in the Journal's print editions on July 11, 2019. To the Editor:
Jason Riley’s suggestion that false hate crimes are being amplified by civil-rights organizations and others who “have a vested interest in exaggerating racial tensions” is deeply offensive and flat-out wrong (“Hate Crime Hoaxes…

Re “Anti-Zionists Deserve Free Speech” (column, April 16):
Michelle Goldberg would have a legitimate point to make if she had limited her argument to the decision to bar the entry of Omar Barghouti to the United States.
As despicable as his views are — as the founder of the boycott, divestment and sanctions…
The follow letter was submitted to The Daily in response to "Netanyahu Won. The Two-State Solution Lost" (April 11) Lisa Tobin
Executive Producer, The Daily
Dear Ms. Tobin:
The Daily Podcast of April 11 was riddled with inaccuracies, omissions and premature conclusions.
Yes, for those of us who believe that Israel needs a two-state solution as much as the Palestinians, there are worrying trends, including the prime minister’s campaign statement about annexing…

To the Editor:

He tries to separate out Zionism from Judaism, when…
