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://t.co/GO1Z15W9eH — The Jerusalem Post (@Jerusalem_Post) April 27, 2019

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 pic.twitter.com/WClykoWlO1 — Adam Milstein (@AdamMilstein) April 27, 2019

An Editors' Note to appear in Monday’s international edition. pic.twitter.com/1rl2vXoTB3 — New York Times Opinion (@nytopinion) April 27, 2019

An “error in judgment,” eh?

Funny how these judgment errors all go in the same direction. — Mo Mo (@molratty) April 27, 2019

Gee, I wonder who would ever take offense to this? pic.twitter.com/0b9JIW7enq — Mo Mo (@molratty) April 27, 2019

How did even two people see this and say, “Approved. Send to press.” WUT — J.R. Holmsted (@JHolmsted) April 27, 2019

It's legitimately shocking. — Mo Mo (@molratty) April 27, 2019

I love the “whoopsy doodle” tone here. Like this isn’t an absolute massacre of journalistic judgment. — GinaNation (@BGBandita) April 27, 2019

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. https://t.co/U14xehZQSC — (((AG))) (@AG_Conservative) April 27, 2019

Just wow.

Confirmed. It is real. Here's the screen shot of the print edition. pic.twitter.com/choibfaoOO — Eugene Linetsky (@eugene_siny) April 27, 2019

Awwww, an Editors note should excuse the @nytimes raging anti-Semitism. Is that it? https://t.co/3HckJJKLSp — Republicanvet (Hamberder Hill) (@Republicanvet91) April 27, 2019

Remember when you were a normal newspaper? — Mike Winters (@Mike_Wntrz) April 27, 2019

“Error of judgment?” That’s a pretty gracious self determination. — Saban•Byrne 2020 (@Cogita_ante_sal) April 27, 2019

Strange how errors always fall to one side… — MintArcher – (Adorable) (@ArcherMint) April 27, 2019

This never should’ve made it out in the first place. It’s abhorrent — Lisa (@kittywhisperer7) April 27, 2019

'error of judgment' — Dominic Green (@DrDominicGreen) April 27, 2019

"error in judgment" = "we thought we'd run with it and see what happened. It didn't turn out like we planned." — Patsy Jones (@pjones59) April 27, 2019

No, it most certainly did not.
