think they shouldn't have done it.

It furthers Black and Jewish tensions. I do agree it makes it look like Jews control the media. The View is a show about discussing topics.

But, being a private company this is not a free speech issue.

As a Jew I don't like what Whoopi said. But, I still wish we could talk about these things and work TOGETHER against hate.

What I feel Whoopi was saying is "My people suffer more than your people" These are painful issues and VERY personal. I also don't want to diminish her pain from being a Black woman.

It's complicated.
