USA – ‘Fuck Jews’: Office of media organization defaced with antisemitic graffiti

The office of The Free Press, a media organization run by Jewish journalist Bari Weiss, was defaced with antisemitic graffiti this past week, Weiss announced on Twitter Sunday afternoon.

Weiss, founder and editor of The Free Press and former New York Times writer and opinion editor, is a vocal proponent of Israel in the media.

Photos on social media show the walls of the companies’ office defaced with the words “Fuck Jews” and “Fuck Israel”.

The Free Press has offices in New York City and Los Angeles. It was not immediately clear which location was attacked.

“If the antisemites who did this think it will intimidate me and the journalists of @TheFP , they don’t know me, they don’t know us, and they have no idea what we stand for,” Weiss wrote on Twitter.

Instances of vandalism and intimidation against Jewish institutions have been widespread since Hamas’ attack against Israel on Oct. 7.

Last week two Jewish primary schools in the Stamford Hill section of London were doused with red paint. While in Tunisia and a territory of Spain, synagogues were attacked.
