“In combating the scourge of antisemitism,” Kraft said in accepting the award, “my solemn ambition is to counter all forms of intolerance in the spirit of the ancient Jewish value of ‘tikkun olam’ — to heal and repair the world.”

There's no intolerance when calling out genocide, however.

Hypothetically speaking, if Jews did control the media, what would it look like?

This image is interesting. Kraft is buddies with Zaslav. I admit I'm sad to see Larry David there, although I am not surprised.

Pretty much anyone in mainstream entertainment is going to be in service of God's Chosen People. If they weren't, they would lose their spotlight like Macklemore and Kanye.

It's gotten so bad we can't even talk about how bad it is.

Supposedly Larry and Alan Dershowitz (awful person and zionist) aren't friends anymore. Interesting that they ever were.

Kraft, who was raised in Brookline by observant Orthodox Jewish parents who hoped their son might become a rabbi, has traveled to Israel well over 100 times and, in 2019, was awarded the Genesis Prize – sometimes called “the Jewish Nobel” – by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“In combating the scourge of anti-semitism,” Kraft said in accepting the award, “my solemn ambition is to counter all forms of intolerance in the spirit of the ancient Jewish value of ‘tikkun olam’ — to heal and repair the world.”

Heal and repair the world of not being entirely israel?
