From ‘Balance’ to Censorship: Bush’s Cynical Plan for NPR
A recent opinion essay in Forward Forum (“From ‘Balance’ to Censorship: Bush’s Cynical Plan for NPR,” May 27) was construed by some readers to imply incorrectly that Camera, the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America, had called for readers of the Los Angeles Times to cancel their subscriptions. In fact, Camera never called for cancellation of Los Angeles Times subscriptions and our article was not intended to imply that. We regret any misunderstanding.
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
