Now on Sunday, Too
Writer-at-Large Jane Eisner November 11, 2011
Back in June, The Forward returned to its roots as a daily publication, this time through cyberspace. We began to offer the kind of fresh, new content that used to come with the morning paper: news stories and analyses, arts and feature reporting, opinion columns, breaking news headlines and the breadth of stuff contained in our many blogs.
Our promise to readers was to deliver this content every weekday morning, and update the site through the day. As a small operation with limited resources, we knew that we could keep that promise, and we weren’t sure we could do more.
But we are now.
Starting today, we are updating our site on Sundays, as well. The tens of thousands of people who receive our daily newsletter, The Forward Today, will now get it on Sunday, too.
Saturday, our Sabbath, you’re on your own. Our commitment to our weekly print edition remains as strong as ever. But starting today, you can count on The Forward to provide you timely, excellent journalism you’ve come to expect, 24/6. Promise.
"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.
