As Twitchy reported earlier, the international edition of The New York Times went out Thursday with one of the most blatantly anti-Semitic cartoons imaginable, showing a blind Donald Trump in a yarmulke being led around by a dog with Benjamin Netanyahu’s face.
The New York Times has apologized for publishing an anti-Semitic cartoon in its international paper on April 25, depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a guide dog for a blind Trump.https://t.co/bY2lN4q43R

The New York Times issued an editor’s note that will appear in Monday’s print edition. We have no beef with Axios, but we’ve read the editor’s note and nowhere do we see an apology:

It was an error of judgment to publish it, sure … but maybe an actual apology is in order?
Fact check: False.
The New York Times neither apologized nor expressed any regret. It just said it was an “error in judgment.”. https://t.co/a4LM8IQB6J

That wasn’t an apology.

The Times didn't apologize at all. An apology typically features the word "sorry", which was no where to be found in the Editor's note. They only acknowledged that the cartoon was offensive.

Post the apology please. I sure haven’t seen it and curious.

No, The New York Times did NOT apologize

No apology and the Jew-hating NYT is not sorry.

They did not apologize, hacks.

They stir it up, the idiots shoot up a synagogue. Coincidence?

If you haven’t seen it, here’s the cartoon:
We must call out and condemn anti-semitism everywhere. This is despicable. https://t.co/Hf3QEXL4J6

If Donald Trump’s post about 9/11 was an incitement to violence against Ilhan Omar, certainly this cartoon is incitement against Jews.
