'SHOCKING'_ Outrage over student's antisemitic job interview rejection · INSIGHT TODAY

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The Jewish founders of a New York City startup are
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: speaking out after this college student rejected an interview offer
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: with a shocking and anti semitic response, Cornell's student Austin Franco,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: writing quote, not interested in working for a jew. Franco
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: then doubled down in an online post, writing quote, I
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: will fight for what I believe is right, not for money, power,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: or something material, but for the cause itself. That prompted
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Cornell to release a statement saying it's investigating and that
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: it condemns anti semitism. Franco had applied for a summer
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: internship with the startup Verified, which is founded by proudly
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Jewish brothers Gabe and Aiden Einhorn.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: My whole goal was that we've been seeing rising anti semitism,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: and the whole goal was just to prove that it
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: is real, and this is a clear example of it.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I thought, maybe he's a college student, could have made
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: a mistake, or he's going to learn from it. Don't
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: need to ruin his life for it, but just to
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: prove a point that anti Semitism is real. We want
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: to grow a company, and we wanted to grow a
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: team of college shootings from all different walks of life,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: with different backgrounds and really build something special.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: It is shocking guy that this individual when he doubled
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: down on what he said, he said, quote, my experience
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: with Jews had not been pleasant, both in person and online.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: This is not to say I haven't had positive experiences,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: but on the aggregate that is not the case. He
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: doubled down on his anti semitism.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he didn't even couch it in the Zionism euphemism.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: It was just straight up anti semitism, not disguised in
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: any way. And then when called on, he was like, yeah,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: I haven't liked them, and that is basically where we are.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: I think, with a lot of young people on college
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: campuses who've been poisoned now for years, with a steady
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: stream of propaganda, a lot of it I think with
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: foreign influence. Notice in his statement, sort of defending himself,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: he said, Oh, I'm going to stand up for what's right.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: What's right about wanting to not work for a specific
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: group of people being because of their faith or ethnicity.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: It's the antithesis of right. So it's been completely flipped
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: and he said he's going to stick to his cause.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: What causes that if not, you hatred. And I don't
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: want to pile too much on this, you know one kid,
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: but I think that there's a permission structure out there
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: now to talk this way about this group of our
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: fellow Americans or even around the world, in a way
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: that would not be permissible with almost any other group
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: right now. And there's a sickness here, I would say.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Gabe Einhorn, one of those owners of that company Emily
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: that we just watched, he said I felt bad exposing
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: him because I thought he could have made a mistake
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: and he really doesn't believe that wholeheartedly. I am glad
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: we know this individual's name.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: I'm glad he was exposed, indeed, and the brothers are
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: so generous and graceful, certainly more than I am, because
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: I do want his life to be ruined. I agree
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: with you, it is a permissive structure. And parents, what
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: are your children putting out there? What are the people
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: that have been in your household putting out there online
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: and to their friends? What has been fomented? Because clearly
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: there is a disconnect. Somehow this person learned that there
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: is an audacity that you can have with this anti simism.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: That's what I found so shocking. Guy and I tore
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: Poland together last May, and whenever I see things like this,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: it harkens me back to our trip where apparently there's
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: been no evolution since World War Two, that that deep
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: seated cultural hatred that's been allowed, that's been fostered, has
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: somehow reignited here among the youth, and it is sickening.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Cornell needs to take greater steps. So do parents, so
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: do online forms, and somehow the sixty five pound vessel
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: of hatred needs to know that not only is this
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: not okay, but it's not acceptable socially because clearly online
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: and among those kid groups I keep saying kid, among
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: the youth, they have learned that it's okay, that it's
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: right to have this anti semitism. It felt sickening for
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: me to just quote him, by the way, to just
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: say those words. Quoting him felt sick.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I'm really interested to see if mister Franco gets a job,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Does anyone hire this guy? I really want to follow
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: up on this well.
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: And also the irony is that he's studying industrial and
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: labor relations, a degree that is centered around per ing
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: workplace discrimination. Wow, I like that kind of bias that
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: he is outwardly and publicly demonstrating against the Jewish people.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: He says his experiences with Jews have not been pleasant
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: or experienced with you. It's not pleasant, buddy. Also, Cornell's
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: faced a lot of issues after October seventh terror attacks.
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: Remember that you had that teacher that called the Hamas
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: attack exhilarating. The FBI has investigated violent threats against Jewish
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: students at the campus as well. El eighty L in
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: their twenty twenty six report gave Cornell a seat reading
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: as well. One of the best pieces of advice I've
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: ever gotten when I first started working on Capitol Hill
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: is that everyone's replaceable. So I think that this guy
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: needs to check his attitude, his discrimination and bias, and
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: realize that he is not deserving of a job. He's
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: got to earn it, and clearly with that entitled attitude,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: I don't suspect he's going to get too far In
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: Live Zanna.
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: I'm just going to say that overwhelmingly most young Americans
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: are not anti Semitics, so we should just kind of
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: say that. But the problem is these young kids are
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: rewarded with social media and the algorithms support them when
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: they say something outrageous, and sadly, a lot of parents
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: are kind of waking up and saying, what did my
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: kids just say? Like have they been indoctrinated? And I
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: didn't realize what was going on in the school that
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: I sent my child, that I entrusted my children with
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: these teachers. I think it's a big wake up call
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: for America.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: And can id of say one quick thing because Emlau
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: invoked our trip to Poland and in Europe in pre
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: World War two that era. It didn't go from everything's
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: fine to the death camps in Auschwitz overnight. There was
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: this slide that happened. And this is an echo here
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: that we have to keep an eye on.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: And another echo cornaxios assaults against Jewish men and women
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: in this country already forty six year high. So this
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: is an insidious ideology that must be stomped out.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Hey everyone, I'm Emily Campano. Catch me and my co
