Jewish Chronicle goes bust

[Currywurst and Chips]

Seriously?

Yes, indeed seriously.

If you want me to spell it out...

You're clearly insinuating that British Jews should read a Palestinian newspaper because they are somehow responsible, should feel guilt about or are wrong about the actions of the Israeli government.

That's offensive.

Also antisemtic under the working definition

If that’s what he meant then yes. But I can’t see how you’ve jumped to that conclusion.

It’s more likely he meant that someone who fails to condemn, or even defends, the actions of a state like Israel should educate themselves so they know the full picture.

[Currywurst and Chips]

Why do British Jews have to condemn Israel? Or even hold an opinion at all

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Can’t see anyone saying that anyone should have to condemn their actions?

[LittleMate]

Hope to see them reform in some way

Really?....Why?

'Cause its a great read for the Jewish community
Im not jewish , but read it regularly when i was working.

It really is a decent paper & tries to represent all sides of a political spectrum.
Im pretty sure they made lots of noise with regards to Mordechai Vanunu .

If it was such a great read then it would not have gone bust.

Newspapers that fail to keep up with the trend that is the internet will find themselves largely confined to history.

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Do any of them make money these days?

I assumed they were all loss making?

[LittleMate]

If they were all loss making then they'd be out of business. 30 years ago they were still the mouthpiece of multi-millionaire egotists. Its changed a bit these days, although all of the familiars still seem to tread those well worn paths and agendas. just playing to their audiences.

Considering it was a free newspaper & picked up by most on a visit to the beigel shop or synagouges or wherever else , it was a decent read.

But why should those most likely to be JC readers in particular need to educate themselves? Why has NuneatonO chosen to pick out this particular group of people?

[Millennial Snowflake]

The caring, compassionate left out in full force again.

Lovely to see

Well done Daniel & that money making machine from the EPL
For finding the "COMPASSION" in this world.

Spurs along with wingate & to a lesser extent Arsenal always had some of there news printed in the JC.

Have you never read it ?
