A rabbi in South Carolina had his Holocaust memorial speech censored by a public TV station after he criticized recent policies on LGBTQ rights and refugee aid. The decision to remove the segment came from the South Carolina Council on the Holocaust, which had hosted the event and hired the TV station to record it. The council said the political statements made during the speech were not appropriate for an educational resource. The incident has sparked a debate over when it is appropriate to compare current events to the Holocaust.
