Metro newspaper apologises for publishing letter claiming Jews are part of ‘privileged majority’

24/11/2021

The editor of the Metro newspaper has apologised and printed a correction after publishing a letter that implied Jews could not be victims of racism as they were part of the ‘privileged majority.’

The newspaper's Metro Talk page on Tuesday 23rd November featured a letter from a reader named Vytautas in Sheffield that attempted to make the point that the term ‘racism’ cannot be applied to minorities who make prejudicial statements.
