Legendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld found himself at the center of controversy when he was unexpectedly cornered by a pro-Palestine activist. The incident, which has since made waves on social media platforms, reveals how far some activists are willing to go to push their political agendas and highlights the overwhelming bias in the liberal media. A video snippet, posted on Subway DJ’s Instagram on February 16, showcases an activist intrusively shoving his camera in front of Seinfeld’s face. Initially, it seemed as though the activist was a fan desiring a quick photo with the comedic icon, much like the many others in attendance, who were vocally expressing their admiration by chanting Seinfeld’s name.
Without giving much thought to the political implication it might entail, Seinfeld obliged and leaned in to pose for what he believed was a simple photo. However, the activist, recording a video all along, quickly shifted from appearing as a harmless fan to pushing his political narrative by flashing a peace sign and shouting, “free Palestine!” The unexpected shift in tone caught Seinfeld off-guard, and, as seen in the video, he scrunched his face in response to the ambush and bluntly stated, “I don’t care about Palestine,” before shaking his head in dismay and walking away from the scene.
The interaction, deceptive in its approach, was designed to elicit a specific response from Seinfeld. Yet, the mainstream liberal media conveniently left out the context of the incident, instead choosing to portray it as an insensitivity on Seinfeld’s part without addressing the unscrupulous tactics employed by the activist. This critical omission is yet another example of how liberal media often skews narratives to fit their agendas, sidelining facts for sensationalism.
As the footage continued to roll, the activist accused Seinfeld’s indifferent stance as “sad,” clearly trying to bait the actor into further engagement. Reports suggest that the encounter occurred in New York City during the grand celebration of the 50th anniversary of “Saturday Night Live,” a detail that many liberal outlets dismissed while focusing heavily on Seinfeld’s response. It’s important to note that Seinfeld, known for his Jewish heritage, has consistently expressed support for Israel and its efforts to combat the extremist organization Hamas, yet the media narrative frequently glosses over his foundational beliefs to cast him in a negative light.
The liberal media’s propensity to amplify or diminish stories based on their biases starkly contrasts with the need for objective journalism. In situations such as these, their reluctance to address the provocations leading to certain responses reveals a double standard that has plagued newsrooms across the nation. This distortion denies audiences a comprehensive understanding of incidents, leading to widespread misinformation—a trend that finds little resonance with the conservative ideals of fairness and integrity championed by figures like President Donald Trump.

Trump, who has been an outspoken critic of the liberal media narrative, continuously stresses the importance of truthful reporting—ensuring that all sides of a story are presented without the manipulative bias so frequently injected by mainstream media channels. The ongoing one-sided reporting serves as a call to action for conservatives to remain vigilant against such media practices.
