January 27: LA: Breakfast With Jodi Rudoren
Rachel Fishman Feddersen and Jodi Rudoren
Join Jodi Rudoren, editor-in-chief of The Forward, and Rachel Fishman Feddersen, CEO and publisher, for breakfast and a conversation about the future of Jewish journalism, the Los Angeles Jewish community, and how the two can best connect.
Jodi, a former LA Times journalist, and Rachel will host the gathering at Temple Emanuel Beverly Hills on January 27 at 8:30 a.m. (kosher breakfast will be provided). While in LA, they’re eager to meet local Jewish leaders and share their vision for revamping The Forward to make it more relevant to national audiences. Rachel hired Jodi this summer to lead a digital transformation of the American Jewish world’s leading publication. Building on The Forward’s legacy of independent, in-depth reporting on politics and culture, and provocative opinion writing from across all spectrums, Jodi is aiming to deepen reader engagement; nationalize the report and audience; and create a dynamic platform for conversation.
She is hoping to hear from you about the problems, gaps and opportunities you see in the Jewish journalism landscape, and the most interesting things happening in Jewish LA.

This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news this Passover.
This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
