Harold Ford, Jr.’s Church Commercial
The campaign of Rep. Harold Ford Jr. – the Democratic nominee for Bill Frist’s Senate seat – has released a commercial filmed in the sanctuary of Ford’s childhood church.
Notice how it is shot so that the cross in the corner, which starts off in the distance, winds up looking like a parrot on Ford’s shoulder by the end of the ad.
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.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
