The May 19 article “Rabbi Fired Over Sex Claims, Defenders Offer Mea Culpa” contained incorrect information about the location of Bayit Chadash, the spiritual center where the alleged abuser was a teacher. The center is located in Jaffa.
The May 19 article “Ala. Democrats Scramble To Bounce Shoah Denier From Primary Ballot” contained incorrect information about the 2002 attorney general candidacy of Larry Darby. He sought the Libertarian nomination, but did not receive it.
In addition, the article reported that Darby had been forced to resign as president of the Atheist Law Center because he hosted an event with a well-known Holocaust denier. The center’s current president, Carol Moore, sent the Forward a letter stating that Darby resigned to run for public office.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
