Gray, an outspoken progressive who served as national press secretary for Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign and has been critical of Israeli attacks in Gaza, faced backlash after she appeared to roll her eyes while speaking to Yarden Godshostage's sister Romi Gonenon Tuesday.
“I really hope that you will believe women in particular when they say they were hurt,” Gonen said of women who claim they were sexually assaulted by Hamas, prompting Gray to seemingly sigh and roll her eyes before she ends the interview and says, “Okay, thanks for joining us. Stick around for a second.”
Hen Mazzigan Israeli Zionist writer and founder of the Tel Aviv Institute, tweeted: “The Hill's @briebriejoy rolls her eyes and sighs at Yarden Gonen, the sister of a hostage in Gaza, who asks her to believe the rape victims. This person won't do that. sinking to, really disgusting.”
