Do Non-Orthodox Jews Have A Marriage Problem?
In the latest episode of the Jewish Channel’s Salon, the Forward’s editor-in-chief Jane Eisner and Change the Ratio’s Rachel Sklar tackle Israel’s new ban on skinny models, gun control, the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade and non-Orthodox Jews’ marriage problem. Joining them were Meredith Goldstein, author of the “The Singles” and the “Love Letters” column in The Boston Globe; Jo Miller, Staff Writer for “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,” and Katie Orenstein, Founder & CEO of The OpEd Project.

Why I became the Forward’s 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.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
