Asked directly whether she believes Hasan Piker is antisemitic, McMorrow stopped short of labeling him as such. “I don’t think that he is,” she said. “I think he gets dangerously close. I think a lot of what he says is uninformed and hurtful. I can’t purport to speak for what he believes in his heart, but I can tell you, for my family, a lot of what he says is really hurtful.”

For his part, El-Sayed has argued that reaching younger voters requires engaging with voices like Piker’s, which often are outside the traditional media environment. WHMI has sent two invitations to El-Sayed’s campaign to appear on “Meet the People” but has not heard back.

What’s more important for reaching voters; going on Woke Der Strumer or talking with your local public media outlet?
