Scientologists and More
Forward book critic Mark Oppenheimer is hosting a new podcast called Castaway, hosted by NewHavenIndependent.org, a new site founded by alt-press veteran Paul Bass. We’re biased, but if the first episode — in which Mark snags the president of the Church of Scientology for a rare lengthy interview — is any indication, Castaway is about to become the new must-hear.
I’m personally matching all gifts to the Forward, up to $36,000. Can I match your gift now?
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
