Yid Vid: Looking for Jewish Comedians in All the Wrong Places
To borrow the words of a famous Jewish comedian: pretty, pretty, pretty good!
Hat tip: L.A. Jewish Journal. (I don’t know how we got scooped on this one given the Forward’s longstanding association with a certain Jewish comedian who’s featured prominently in this video.)
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.
