Forward Staff Honored
It’s been a good week for the Forward. The paper was recognized last Friday by the Independent Press Association of New York when two staff members received Ippie awards.
Editor J.J. Goldberg won third place in the best editorial category for “Blind Justice,” and staff writer Rebecca Spence won third place in the best labor story category for “Labor Woes Hit Memorial to East Side Wage Slaves.”
The Forward’s Web team was also honored this week: Forward.com won the Silver Medal in the 2007 International Davey Awards.
It’s our birthday and we’re still celebrating!
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 week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
As a nonprofit newsroom, reader donations make it possible for us to do this work. Support independent, agenda-free Jewish journalism and our board will match your gift in honor of our birthday!
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
