Elie Wiesel
On October 22, the Forward mistakenly published a story noting that a woman was publicly alleging, on another website, that she had been sexually harassed by Elie Wiesel in 1989.
Our story did not meet our journalistic standards and has been removed.
The Forward apologizes for this error. Read more about our decision here.
