Right-leaning outlets emphasize criticism of the decision, with Breitbart and the Post describing the museum as "under fire" and the Post quoting critics calling it "woke nonsense" and "stupidity and ignorance." The Daily Wire and Daily Mail highlight that consent could not be obtained because the deceased are ancient, with the Mail framing it as a "'woke' row."
