CNN has referred to the lighting ceremony of the National Menorah on the Ellipse in Washington, DC, as “the most prominent public Chanukah event in the world”.
See this live interview with senior shliach to Washington, DC, Rabbi Levi Shemtov, Executive Vice President of American Friends of Lubavitch (Chabad) who oversees the organization of this premier event, seen this year by a staggering 55 million viewers on over 1000 TV newscasts in all 50 states, according to independent media industry sources.

I love how he shifted towards the menorah and maintained positivity, a great spokesperson for Lubavitch – Rabbi Shemtov.
Rabbi shemtov spoke very well!
he knew how to navigate the partisan questioning.
…That’s why CNN ALWAYS covers stories of Antisemitic crimes perpetrated by African Americans, minorities and prominent Democrats.
CNN (ta’keh) STINKS.
Good Shabbos to all.
Amazing job
Outsmarted CNN, KEEP IT UP
Rabbi Shemtov, spoke very well and did not get sucked in by the anchors questions. He kept focused on the positive message of Chanukkah and applied it beautifully to the questions being asked! Kol Hakavod!
