JK Rowling issues ’brilliant smackdown’ on left media following biased reporting

JK Rowling has issued a “brilliant smackdown“ to Vice News after the media outlet levied an argument as to why Neo Nazis were at pro-Palestinian protests, says Sky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton. “People should be responsible for their own actions, not the actions of someone next to them or even worse, someone in the near vicinity,” Mr Houghton said. “Many journalists on the left have been incapable of drawing that distinction, until of course, it involves Palestine.” Vice News wrote in a tweet: “Neo-Nazis have used growing anger against the Israeli government as an opportunity to spew antisemitic and anti-immigrant conspiracy theories, launder them into the mainstream, and drive recruitment. JK Rowling responded: “Hang on. When far-right groups eager for publicity/violence agitate near women’s rallies, that makes all the women sticking up for their rights fascists. However, when Nazis join a protest YOU agree with, they’re opportunists who mustn’t be allowed to besmirch a righteous cause.” “What an absolutely brilliant woman, how lucky are we to have her on the side of reason and logic,” Mr Houghton said.
