Yid Vid: Sarah Silverman for the Writers

By Daniel Treiman November 26, 2007

Beth of Jewlicious thinks this video just goes to show that Sarah Silverman’s “a moron.” I disagree. I think she actually makes the writers’ case pretty well, albeit in her typical comic faux-moron fashion.

Read the comments on the Jewlicious post for a lively debate about whether Silverman is funny or just vulgar. (I say: yes and yes.)

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’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.

If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
