More than 180 prominent Jewish artists and academics, including Todd Haynes, Joel Coen, Miranda July, and Naomi Klein, have signed an open letter supporting actor Mark Ruffalo after he was accused of antisemitism by Paramount Skydance. The accusation stems from Ruffalo’s criticism of Paramount Skydance’s planned acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, which he linked to Oracle CEO Larry Ellison and his son David Ellison. Ruffalo highlighted Oracle’s long-standing technological support for Israel’s military and government, suggesting that the technology could eventually be used against civilians. He warned that the merger would have catastrophic consequences for the entertainment industry, leading to job losses and reduced competition. In response, Paramount stated they were concerned when people invoke antisemitic tropes under the guise of business disagreement. The signatories of the letter dismissed the accusations against Ruffalo as a scandalous smear campaign and called for an end to the false and dangerous misuse of antisemitism charges against those who dare to expose obvious truths.

It includes perspectives from multiple stakeholders and does not use loaded language or one-sided sourcing. The framing remains balanced, focusing on the controversy rather than taking a clear立场
