The New York Times issued a correction Thursday, admitting it had wrongly attributed an antisemitic remark to Charlie Kirk when the late Turning Point USA founder was actually critiquing the comment.
As part of its story on where Kirk stood on key political issues in the wake of his assassination, The Times reported Kirk was “repeatedly accused of antisemitism.” Kirk was a staunch supporter of Israel and has been praised by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“An earlier version of this article described incorrectly an antisemitic statement that Charlie Kirk had made on an episode of his podcast. He was quoting a statement from a post on social media and went on to critique it. It was not his own statement,” the New York Times wrote beneath the report.

The Times corrected the report, but as of Friday morning it still insisted Kirk “was repeatedly accused of antisemitism, including by fellow conservatives.” It reported he was a proponent of “replacement theory” and “accused Jewish philanthropists of fomenting anti-whiteness by supporting liberal antiracism causes like the Black Lives Matter movement.”
“Allies of Mr. Kirk often sought to defend him against accusations of antisemitism by citing his support for Israel. Mr. Kirk defended Israel’s actions in Gaza,” the Times added.
The Times did not specify exactly what was corrected from its original report, and it was unclear if it deleted the passage in question.
The New York Times declined comment when reached by Fox News Digital.
The paper was sharply criticized for the report on social media.
Netanyahu delivered an emotional tribute to Kirk after his tragic death, calling the 31-year-old a “once-in-a-generation” figure.
“He was a defender of our common Judeo-Christian civilization. He was unbelievably excited to walk in the footsteps of Jesus here. He valued our bond, the bond between America and Israel,” Netanyahu said Thursday on “The Faulkner Focus.”

“He had his truth. He stood up for it,” Netanyahu continued. “But he said, ‘You can come and debate me.’ He invited that debate. He certainly didn’t invite the violence, the horrible violence that tried to silence him.”
Some progressive sites like Snopes have accused Kirk of engaging in antisemitic tropes, such as his remarks on his podcast on Oct. 26, 2023, in the aftermath of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel.
Kirk was critical of liberal Jewish donors, saying he and other conservative Christians were the ones trying most to defend Judaism and Israel in the U.S.
“In a stunning turn of events, the people that the [Anti-Defamation League] said were Jew haters are actually the biggest defenders of Judaism and Israel right now in the country. Us,” he said, pointing at himself. “Conservative evangelical Christians. And Jewish donors, they have a lot of explaining to do, a lot of de-coupling to do, because Jewish donors have been the No. 1 funding mechanism of radical open-border, neoliberal, quasi-Marxist policies, cultural institutions and nonprofits.”
“Jews have been some of the largest funders of cultural Marxist ideas and supporters of those ideas over the last 30 or 40 years,” he said on another show on Nov. 7, 2023. “Stop supporting causes that hate you.”

The New York Times issued a correction on Thursday after falsely accusing Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk of making an antisemitic claim on his podcast.
The Times falsely accused Kirk of stating on his podcast in 2023 that Jewish communities are “pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites” that they want people to stop using against them. However, Kirk cited a tweet making that claim and critiqued it, causing the Times’ correction to be made.
“An earlier version of this article described incorrectly an antisemitic statement that Charlie Kirk had made on an episode of his podcast. He was quoting a statement from a post on social media and went on to critique it. It was not his own statement,” the correction reads.
In actuality, Kirk clarified that not all Jews are pushing hatred onto white people. He stated that certain communities have pushed it by supporting left-wing causes such as Black Lives Matter.
“Now let me just say, this is not a very well-written tweet. It’s very confusing. I’ll go through what they’re basically saying here. Half of this tweet is true, half of it, I don’t like. You want the truth said to your face. There it is. Elon responds, and he says you have said the actual truth … But the first part is absolutely true. Let’s go to this. Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them,” Kirk said.

“Now I don’t like generalizations. Not every Jewish person believes that. But it is true, the Anti-Defamation League was part and parcel with Black Lives Matter. It is true that some of the largest financiers of left-wing anti-white causes have been Jewish Americans,” Kirk said.
After his death, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu referred to Kirk as a “lionhearted friend of Israel” who “stood tall for Judeo-Christian civilization.”
The entirety of the article appeared critical of Kirk’s conservative views, such as his belief that teachers should not push gender ideology onto children. It also noted that Kirk criticized society’s fixation on race and George Floyd, who factually had a lengthy criminal history before his death on May 25, 2020.
The article stated that Kirk “dismissed concerns” about climate change and that he rejected the idea that global warming is an “existential threat.”
Authorities arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson for the assassination of Kirk on Friday following a large-scale manhunt. President Donald Trump revealed on “Fox & Friends” that someone “very close” to Robinson turned him in.
