ABC’s decision to suspend Whoopi Goldberg from “The View” for two weeks for her remarks about the Holocaust has opened the network up to criticism that its response derailed a teachable moment for the nation about a sensitive topic often misunderstood and seldom discussed on air.

Elsewhere:

People are discovering Jimmy Carr’s recent Netflix comedy special, in which he decided to “joke” about a different racial group involved in the Holocaust.

Horrific, incomprehensible “joke”. However, as horrifying to me is this quote:

“Ms Dorries [Culture Secretary] suggested the government could legislate to stop comedy people find offensive being shown on streaming platforms. "We're already looking at future legislation to bring into scope those sort of comments," she told the BBC.”
