Judy Woodruff Apologizes for Remarks on Trump and Netanyahu's Gaza Ceasefire Talks
Aug 21, 2024, 07:12 PM
Judy Woodruff, a correspondent for PBS, has issued a clarification and apology following her remarks about former President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's involvement in ceasefire talks in the Middle East, specifically the Gaza conflict. Woodruff's comments, made during a PBS News special, suggested that Trump was attempting to undermine a hostage deal, which Hamas is reportedly rejecting. The remarks, which were part of a viral clip, sparked significant backlash, leading to calls for retraction from figures such as Michael Waltz. Woodruff clarified that her statements were not based on her original reporting but were derived from reports by Axios and Reuters. However, some have questioned the existence of such reports. The controversy has also reignited discussions about public funding for PBS. PBS has reached out to emphasize Woodruff's apology and expressed hope for improved dialogue.
