The New York Times has subtly changed its headline about the murder of a rabbi in Dubai after facing fierce backlash for seemingly downplaying the 'antisemitic act of terror.' But the Times sparked widespread backlash when they initially reported the story with the headline, 'Israeli rabbi who disappeared in Dubai is found dead.' 'Rabbi Kogan was not 'found dead', he was murdered,' Cuomo wrote on X. The media should call the kidnapping and killing of Rabbi Kogan exactly what it is: an act of antisemitic terror.' Be better than this New York Times,'By Monday morning, the headline was quietly updated to, 'An Israeli Rabbi Is Abducted and Killed in the U.A.E.'
