Partisan bias created a toxic media culture that tolerates anti-Semitism

The willingness of conservatives to give Candace Owens a pass for her defense of Kanye West’s anti-Semitism is a product of a hopelessly polarized political culture.

Candace Owens is a fraud. If she respected Jews, or conservatism, she wouldn’t have defended Kanye West, or made her ridiculous attempt to try to explain why his comments weren’t antisemitic. How would she feel about a white liberal defending racist comments from a white celebrity, who then attempted to lecture blacks about what actual racism is? We know how she would feel-she’d be irate. Many republicans proved last week that they came be every bit a partisan as the democrats often are.
