SUMMARY:Reading the News Through Jewish Eyes-Joel Brown
DESCRIPTION:Since the Hamas attacks of October 7\, U.S. news coverage of is
 sues critical to Jewish communities -- the explosion of domestic anti-Semi
 tism\, perspectives on the Hamas incursion and related war in Gaza\, and p
 rotests on U.S. campuses and elsewhere -- have often been rife with skewed
  or biased perspectives marked by incomplete information or lacking nuance
  and context\, and sometimes tilting to outright dis-information. We may n
 ot be able to change the daily news\, but we can read the news with more c
 ritical eyes\, and we can improve the quality of our media consumption.\n\
 nJoel Brown\, a board member of The Forward (and longstanding congregant a
 nd past President)\, will lead an interactive presentation and discussion 
 on the current role of Jewish American media in our country\, and how the 
 foundational attributes of the U.S. Jewish media can serve to expose the c
 ore drivers\, strengths\, weaknesses and limitations of U.S. secular media
 . He will also provide answers to the following questions: What makes jour
 nalism like davening? And why is the U.S. Supreme Court like a bowl of app
 lesauce? This one night session will be in-person only\, with no streaming
  options\, so as to best promote the free interchange of ideas and reactio
 ns within a supportive community.\n\nPlease sign up in advance.\n[gravityf
