NBC is under fire, Wednesday, for an episode of the medical drama, “Nurses,” which included “an offensive portrayal of an Orthodox Jew” that social media users quickly branded “anti-Semitic,” according to the Florida Sun-Sentinel.
“The objectionable storyline occurred on an episode of ‘Nurses,’ a Canadian hour-long drama following a group of nurses in a Toronto hospital. In the episode, a young Hasidic patient is told he will need a bone graft to heal his broken leg, leading his devout father to recoil at the possibility of a ‘dead goyim leg from anyone. An Arab, a woman,'” the outlet explained.
