Whoopi Goldberg suspended from TV show over Holocaust claims

American actress Whoopi Goldberg was suspended from the TV show The View because of her words about the Holocaust and the Jews, despite the fact that she apologized. It is reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

“With immediate effect, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her incorrect and offensive comments. Although Whoopi apologized, I asked her to think about and learn about the impact of her comments. The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities,” said ABC News President Kim Godwin.

According to her, Goldberg's statements do not correspond to the company's values.

The reason for the removal of the actress and the presenter was her statement on The View that the Holocaust is not the extermination of a race, but a manifestation of inhumanity.

Goldberg later apologized in Instagram stories for saying that the Holocaust was not related to anti-Semitism.
