In this week’s Reporters Roundtable podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward Washington correspondent Nathan Guttman, to discuss the ongoing Israel-Palestine peace negotiations and what the negotiators are eating for dinner. Then, former Forward staffer Allison Yarrow calls in to discuss her new ebook on the trial of Satmar sexual abuser, Nechemya Weberman and how she landed an interview with Weberman’s wife. Finally, podcast producer Nate Lavey is leaving the paper and he looks back on the podcast and his favorite Forward multimedia stories.
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.
