Journo Stops Guest Mid-Interview When He Claims Israel Is Committing Genocide

Before the FCC starts its early renewal of ABC broadcast licenses, Chairman Brendan Carr should take a look at this clip from 10 News in South Florida. The ABC affiliate hosts its own local edition of This Week on Sundays, and this Sunday's guest was Oliver Larkin, a Democrat running for the U.S. House in Florida’s 25th Congressional District. Host Glenna Milberg cut Larkin short when he started going off on a rant about Israel committing genocide.

The post continues:

… disproportionate wartime action—that's what that is.

Genocide is a very specific thing, actually genocide being committed against Jewish people, not by Israel."

Larkin responds, "The UN recently in Geneva found that the IDF had deliberately targeted women and children. 

There's been famine conditions imposed over the Gaza Strip by the blockading of aid. There's been indiscriminate bombing of hospitals, of mosques, of churches—"

"Again, I'm going to have to stop you, as that is factually not correct. I'm being told we have to wrap."

Glenna Milberg is an Emmy Award-winning television journalist at Miami's WPLG Local 10 News

Commenters are lamenting another Zionist in the mainstream media.

If Israel intended to commit genocide against Gaza, everyone would already be dead. And enough with the talk of "disproportionate wartime action." Was Israel supposed to rape and murder 1,200 Palestinians and call it even? Hamas started a war it couldn't win, and then said it would repeat the October 7 massacre if it got the opportunity.

A lot of viewers are big mad:

Yeah, OK. During "the revolution."
