Foster made the remarks in an interview connected to the Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast, hosted by Amanda Hirsch. The discussion addressed Brody’s public comments about Palestine amid the Israel-Gaza war.
Foster described the issue as complicated and said that disagreement did not prevent her from expressing affection for Brody. She said people can have different opinions, framing the exchange as a disagreement between colleagues rather than denying that Brody could hold his own view.
Brody had previously told GQ that he regarded the Israel-Gaza war as a genocide and wanted a free Palestine. Those remarks formed the background to Foster’s response, according to the reports.
The episode and the reports place the disagreement in the public conversation surrounding Palestine and the Israel-Gaza war, while preserving a distinction between Brody’s stated position and Foster’s response. Foster’s comments, as reported, establish her disagreement and her view that differing opinions are possible.
