All Things Considered…they can get pretty “bassy”.

There was some speculation that an intern or other staffer put that in and she just read what was presented. There was a Facebook meme or something a few years earlier about all the Jewish lawmakers.

Ironically Bernie would get Corbyned over his support for Palestine if he wasn't Jewish so of all the lawmakers on the list it was extra stupid to say that to him.

NPR has a ton of Jewish talent so it is unlikely Rehm really meant to be anti-semitic. It would have come out before then.

It is possible also she just hated him. At least a dozen top NPR talents and hosts were constantly trashing Bernie on their Twitter accounts. Maybe Diane was just trying to be hip and on trend.
