CNN anchor Dana Bash's book event at Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington D.C. was repeatedly disrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters. The protesters accused Bash, who is Jewish, of being complicit in genocide and demanded she be imprisoned, alleging she seeks financial gain from AIPAC. Bash's response to the protesters was, 'Take off your mask.' The event, meant to promote her new book 'America's Deadliest Election,' was thrown into disarray as protesters labeled her a killer and expressed antisemitic sentiments. The disruptions, which also targeted her solidarity for hostages in Gaza, have been widely condemned as antisemitic attacks.
