Lieberman-Lamont Roundup
Bloomberg campaigns for Lieberman. Lieberman defends hugging and Democratic war critics, and criticizes waffling. AFSCME drops Lieberman for Lamont, who speaks out on foreign policy, and pulls another $1.5 million out of his pocket.
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
