Hey Mel! Jew’s on First!
During Tuesday night’s Boston Red Sox game, comedian Dennis Leary delivered what blogger Andrew Sullivan is describing as the best commentary yet on Mel Gibson’s recent woes. (Original hat-tip: Former Forward staffer Seth Mnookin, who has a transcript up on his blog.) Forget Sandy Koufax and Hank Greenberg — Red Sox first baseman Kevin Youkilis is the man.
A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
