Heeb Hundred and Forward 50 Agree — But Only Once
The Forward 50 and the Heeb Hundred don’t tend to have too much overlap. This year, however, our circles intersect, though only in the person of FailedMessiah blogger Shmarya Rosenberg.
But don’t take this narrow intersection as evidence that our 110-year-old newspaper is somehow behind those Heeb hipsters on the coolness curve; we were way, way ahead of them on the Jewish rosaries beat.
Yeah, we’re hip to that jive.
The Forward is free to read, but it isn’t free to produce
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.
