In this week’s podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward news editor Larry Cohler-Esses and Forward fellow Naomi Zeveloff to discuss the fallout of French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s recent gaffe when he was caught calling Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu a “liar” to Barack Obama. Then the group turns to Naomi’s recent story about the questionable practice of some colleges to give credit to students who take Israel advocacy classes. Finally, Nathan Guttman, the Forward’s Washington correspondent, phones in to talk about the recent General Assembly of the Jewish Federations of North America, which just wrapped up in Denver.

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.
