Not to mention what happened to Helen Thomas! She always asked the tough questions, of the most powerful politicians, for decades. She was respected for her fearlessness. One little comment about Jews going back to their home countries such as Germany and Poland and BAM!!! No more Helen Thomas. A great clip of her retracting her apology here:
