Oh dear, how sad.

Maybe their readers could use this excellent website to keep up to date with their news instead?

'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 .

Lucky they managed to hang on long enough to see Labour back in safe establishment hands.

An absolute rag. Good riddance. Maybe the Jewish community will get a decent paper now, one that isn't a mouthpiece for the Hard Right of the Jewish establishment.

Come on Tufty. What about the journalist recently censured by the PCC for telling lies about the anti-semitism within Labour. What you cite is historical.

There may have been a time when it was "2 sided" (whatever that means) but if its failed as a commercial enterprise its because it has lost its relevance and nobody reads or buys it anymore.

Back in the day, the JC was a valuable newspaper for the Jewish community, but once the vile Pollard took over it became a toxic, entity .
Pollard is a hard right nasty. I believe he was sued fairly recently and had to pay damages, which probably contributed to the papers demise
I'm sure the vacuum will be filled soon, and one hopes the replacement will be a kinder paper

Well maybe thats is so over the last couple of years .
But you cant tar its long-term readership & writers for
The last couple of years.

Ill defend & argue what is right & what is wrong on all topics,
And the JC isnt what the last couple of years may portray.

Vilify the peopke running it not what it stands for
Which is the Jewish Community .

The JC is what it has portrayed over the last couple of years. The rest is history. At one time it was a valuable source of information to the community. That's all I'm saying.

It is indeed sad news that the Jewish Chronicle is in strife. Also sad that the usual suspects try to make hay when they feel the sun shines.

Welcoming the demise of cynical, divisive, racist, Hard-Right filth is not anti-semitic. You've been called out before for accusing people of anti-semitism without just cause. You disappeared sharpish last time when asked to apologise, are you going to do the same this time?
