The split, in one line
The right frames Wiener as a victim of the left's own Frankenstein, while National Review questions his progressive credentials entirely. Center-left and Jewish outlets emphasize antisemitism in progressive politics and official condemnations. Wires focus on Wiener's statement and race context.
