Antisemitism and Anti-Zionism With Kenneth Stern He analyzed the militia movement, bigotry on campus, hate speech on talk radio and the Internet. He is a frequent guest on national television and talk radio shows, including Face the Nation, Crossfire, Nightline, Dateline, Good Morning America, CBS Evening News, and National Public Radio.

In 2001 he was an official member of the United States delegation to the Stockholm International Forum on Combating Intolerance. Stern was also a key drafter of a "working definition" of antisemitism, which has been adopted, starting in January 2005, by various international bodies tasked with monitoring antisemitism.[2]
Views
In his article ''Holocaust education alone won't stop hate'', Stern proposes ways to combat persisting hatred of Jews:
"Human rights organizations must be challenged when they do not sufficiently assert that freedom from anti-Semitism is a human right.
Governments must be engaged to ensure that they investigate and prosecute anti-Semitic hate crimes fully.
Monitoring groups must catalog not only the old-fashioned forms of religious and racial anti-Semitism, but also the more contemporary forms that treat the Jewish state in the same bigoted manner that traditional anti-Semitism regards the individual Jew. Campus administrations need to uphold the highest academic standards and make certain that while heated debate is encouraged, intimidation is prohibited."[3]
