“It is shocking that this vile depiction was published in Berkeley’s paper of record,” Dershowitz said in a letter to the editor. “The cartoon resembles the grotesque anti-Semitic blood libel propaganda splashed across Der Stürmer in the 1930s, which depicted Jews drinking the blood of gentile children.”
Laurence Tribe, a Harvard law professor and former colleague, supported Dershowitz, as well as did Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League.
“I cannot recall anything similar in The Daily Californian, and I call on the paper’s editors to reflect on whether they would sanction a similar assault on other ethnic or religious groups,” Berkeley Chancellor Carol Christ said, condemning the cartoon in a letter published by The Daily Wire.
The editors of The Daily Californian apologized a week after publishing the cartoon....
“The best response to bigotry is the opposite of censorship: It is exposure and shaming in the court of public opinion,” Dershowitz said. “It should be widely circulated along with the names prominently displayed of the person who drew it and the bigoted editors who decided to publish it. Every potential employer or admissions officer should ask them to justify their bigotry.”
