Reporters’ Roundtable: J Street in Hot Water; Eli Valley’s Comics
Host Josh Nathan-Kazis speaks with staff writer Nathan Guttman about the implications of J Street’s admission that it has received money from George Soros. Then the Forward’s comic artist, Eli Valley, joins the conversation, discussing his creative process and his latest satirical column, in which the oversized head of reporter Helen Thomas inspires young Jews to mate and procreate.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
