After an event at Bus Boys and Poets, Rep. Ilhan Omar was misquoted and had her words misrepresented. False accusations of anti-semitism were levied against her, and several media outlets ran with the fake news. IPS, who helped organize the event Rep. Omar was speaking at, quickly responded with a transcript of what Rep. Omar actually said.
Phyllis Bennis, director of the New Internationalism Project, joined The Real News’ Marc Steiner to discuss the attacks against Rep. Omar, AIPAC, and more.
