During the horrific October 7 terrorist attacks, Hamas used social media garner additional attention, even livestreaming their slaughter of innocent civilians and hostage-taking. According to Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor, the Founder and Executive Director of CyberWell who dedicates her life to combatting and reporting online antisemitism, this led to a sharp increase in Jew hatred on social media platforms. Host Steven Shalowitz sits down with Montemayor to discuss working with social media companies to fight antisemitism, how social media was used to promote and deny the October 7 attacks, and the importance of reporting harmful content.
