],
"textContent": "The German state has fired the head of the Berlin film festival, apparently for refusing to ban criticism of Israel there.\n\nShe had opposed calls for the festival itself to take a specific stand, instead saying that artists presenting films there should be free to express their views. Apparently such freedom is now considered \"antisemitic\".",
