image sourced from original article at Major media outlets' annual 'year in photos' features for 2025 largely omitted coverage of the record-breaking antisemitic violence that occurred worldwide, including deadly attacks on Jewish individuals and communities. While some coverage acknowledged related events, explicit references to Jews and antisemitism were often absent or downplayed, even when the context was clear.
This pattern extended to official statements and commemorations, such as the United States vice president's Holocaust Remembrance Day message, which failed to mention Jews directly. Media organizations like the BBC also faced criticism for omitting Jews from their Holocaust coverage, prompting public apologies and accusations of erasing Jewish suffering from historical memory.
Commentators argue that these omissions contribute to the ongoing marginalization of Jewish experiences and the normalization of antisemitism, raising concerns about how history is remembered and reported.
