Previously employed by the Times as a freelancer from 2018-2021, Soliman Hijjy, a so-called “Palestinian filmmaker,” has been rehired by the outlet to cover Hamas’ ongoing attacks against Israel. As noted by the New York Post, Hijjy has published multiple social media posts throughout the past several years praising Hitler.
In 2018, the same year he was first hired by the Times, Hijjy issued a Facebook post in Arabic that included a photo of himself and a caption claiming he was “in a state of harmony as Hitler was during the Holocaust.” The post came six years after Hijjy published on Facebook a doctored photo of Hitler appearing to take a selfie along with the caption: “How great you are, Hitler.”
The Times has since defended its decision to rehire Hijjy. In a statement, a Times representative claimed the outlet had “reviewed” Hijjy’s “problematic” posts when they surfaced last year and “took a variety of actions to ensure he understood our concerns and could adhere to our standards if he wished to do freelance work for us in the future.” The outlet’s rep went on to contend that Hijjy has “followed those steps and has maintained high journalistic standards” and praised his work as “important” and “impartial.”
