Yid Vid: Sarah Silverman for the Writers
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.)
Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
- Alyssa Katz, Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
