Whoopi Goldberg

In an interview with the Times of London this week, Goldberg defended her earlier statement that “the Holocaust isn’t about race.”
Earlier this year, the co-host of “The View” sparked a controversy when she denied the Nazis’ racist motives.
The two-week suspension will give the talk-show host “time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments,” says the TV station’s president Kim Godwin.
Dani Dayan welcomed the talk-show host’s “important” apology, though said her remarks were evidence of a “fundamental misunderstanding” regarding the nature of anti-Semitism.
