Left-Wing Nudnik Fends Off Suit From Right-Wing Nudnik
Left-wing blogger Richard Silverstein has had a libel suit against him dismissed by a judge, he reports on his Tikkun Olam blog. Right-wing activist Rachel Neuwirth apparently was upset that he referred to her as “Kahanist swine.”
With the lawsuit now behind him, Silverstein can now go back to kvetching full time.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
