U.N. Committee Passes Resolution (Correction)
In the November 26 article “U.N. Committee Passes Resolution,” Amy Goodstein’s position was misstated. She is currently director of United Nations affairs for B’nai Brith International.
The November 12 editorial “How the Jews Vote” incorrectly identified the Federalist candidate for U.S. president in 1800. The candidate was John Adams.
The Forward 50 entry on Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Douglas Feith in the November 12 issue contained a number of errors. Feith served in the Reagan administration, before entering the private sector in 1986. His father, Dalk Feith, was not a member of the Irgun and never fought in Palestine.
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.
