LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) Oscar-winning actress and bestselling author Shirley MacLaine has long believed in all things New Age, but her suggestion in a newly updated memoir that Holocaust victims might have been paying for sins from a former life is opening old wounds.

Her comments in What If , first published in 2013, are being assailed as hateful, hurtful and offensive.

KCAL9s Peter Daut says the actress has a history of saying controversial things about spirituality, reincarnation, the supernatural and UFOs.

MacLaine, who once said she lived in the lost continent of Atlantis, also suggested her friend Stephen Hawking brought about his crippling ALS on himself to free his mind so that he could focus better on his scientific works.

It is her comments about the Holocaust, however, that are raising the most eyebrows.

The updated memoir suggested Holocaust victims might have been the Roman soldiers who put Christians to death or the Crusaders who murdered in Christs name. The energy of killing is endless and will be experienced by the killer and the killee,' she wrote.

The book, subtitled A Lifetime Of Questions, Speculations, Reasonable Guesses And A Few Things I Know For Sure, was originally intended for the actress to riff on a variety of topics, from the serious like world affairs, to show business (What if the entire cast of Downton Abbey was American?) to the ridiculous (What if a frog had wings?)

I think she made a terrible error. I think shes wrong, said Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.

He says MacLaines understanding of karma is flawed and nothing justifies the Holocaust.

Whenever anyone comes forward with a sort of one-size-fits-all explanation about it, I think the alarm bells go off, Cooper said.

Who will most miss Jon Stewart when he leaves The Daily show later this year? No, not millennials. Not liberals. Not even Bill O'Reilly.

The group that will most miss Mr. Stewart is book publishers.

That's according to The Washington Post and Slate, which reported on the comedy newsman's outsize contribution in bringing attention to underappreciated books.

"Jon Stewart announced plans Tuesday night to leave his perch on 'The Daily Show' later this year," wrote Slate. "The shrieks and cries you heard coming from Manhattan and Brooklyn? That was the sound of publishing and media insiders realizing that their best avenue for jump-starting book sales and making best-sellers is about to shut down."

"In an increasingly fractured market, 'The Daily Show' has beena singular platform for authors to promote their books," the Post reported, adding that book publishers were "crushed" by news of Stewart's departure.

Folks across the industry, including New York Times Book Review editor Pamela Paul, weighed in on the news.

Others echoed Ms. Paul's sentiments.

"Getting an author booked on 'The Daily Show' was often the Holy Grail for book publicists," Kate Lloyd, Scribner's associate director of publicity, told the Post. "His audience is made up of smart, book-buying readers who respond to the thoughtful treatment and authentic passion he customarily expresses for the books he features."

Elizabeth Riley, senior director of publicity at Norton, called Stewart "the intellectual author's Oprah," adding that being on The Daily Show is the dream interview every serious nonfiction writer mentions during that first strategy meeting."

There's a reason for that. After appearing on the Daily Show, even small title usually experience a jump in sales and interest a major boon to publisher and author alike. Ms. Riley cited the recent appearance of author Sarah Chayes for her book, Thieves of State." Immediately after her appearance, sales jumped. "What other show could do that for a book on global corruption? Riley asked.
