 Only Because Of Trump Did The Media Suddenly Care About Anti-Semitism

Liberal reporters and columnists may not have been aware of anti-Semitism before Trump, but if they have any hope at regaining legitimacy post-election, they had better wise up.

By Bethany Mandel

Perhaps it’s because I’m a Jewish writer who has been the target of a great deal of anti-Semitism this year, but I’ve watched the following phenomenon with great interest: Suddenly, the year 2016 became the year the media and a good number of liberals discovered the continued existence of anti-Semitism and began to decry it, loudly.

For the rest of us Jews, especially on the conservative side of the aisle, it’s been somewhat amusing to see dozens of journalists file breathless stories about anti-Semitism they, rightly or wrongly, perceived out of the Trump campaign and supporter base over the last year.

Exactly!  Can't be stated enough.

The past eight years, we've seen Obama, Hillary, Kerry & friends....all speak poorly of our greatest ally in the region.

Not a GD peep out of anyone in the media.

For those reporters who are just now awakened to the phenomenon of modern anti-Semitism: try taking up the American college campus beat, where anti-Semitism is not only rife, but also quickly spreading.
My first thought. Where has the outrage been over the past several years' worth of anti-Semitism at America's "elite" institutions of higher education?

Obviously they believe it's better late than never.
