A summit sponsored by the Combat Antisemitism Movement and Consulate General of Israel in New York.

“I have no doubt [Cohen] was paid, that’s how those events work,” Ari Ingel, executive director of Creative Community For Peace, a nonprofit that galvanizes entertainment leaders to oppose antisemitism and works to oppose cultural boycotts of Israel, told eJP. Another source, familiar with the event, told eJP that at least some of the speakers were not paid, but did have travel accommodations covered.
Ingel, who did not attend the event, said that it’s typical for entertainers to not let the media in on how much they were paid to speak at an event, so it’s normal that Cohen’s team did not respond to inquiries from eJP.
Both of the organizers — the Combat Antisemitism Movement and the Israeli Consulate — declined to comment to eJP regarding whether they paid Cohen and how much.[1]
Two sources familiar with the entertainment industry told eJP that celebrities are paid between $50,000- $75,000 for engagements similar to Cohen’s. A few years ago, according to a source, those numbers were closer to $12,000.
“There is too much bankrolling of already established influencers by Jewish organizations and not enough investment into creating new ones,” a source familiar with the issue told eJP. “You see organizations paying through the roof either as retainer or a one-time sum… it’s almost like throwing cash against the wall.”
