In this week’s Reporters Roundtable podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward Digital Features Editor Abigail Jones to discuss our crowdsourced list of 36 inspirational rabbis. Then, Forward Washington correspondent Nathan Guttman calls in to fill us in on President Obama’s trip to Israel. Finally, Josh talks Philip Roth and Newark with Nate Lavey, Digital Media Producer.
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.
