The Jew’s Ear Juice
China is capable of anything. So goes the mantra in the west. So when they say they have cans of The Jew’s Ear Juice, maybe they mean it.
After all it can’t be a language problem after two years of hard work by the professionals and volunteers of the “Shanghai Commission for the Management of Language Use” at the 2010 Expo. Can it? Andrew Jacob’s article in the New York Times suggests that, even if you have to take it a little seriously, you don’t have to take it very seriously.
Until I hear otherwise, though, I’ll be exchanging the ringing in my ears for wringing out my ears and readying the resultant juice for export.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
