'We're Not A Federation Paper'

I love it how journalists such as Gary Rosenblatt (The Jewish Week) proudly tell me that their papers are not Federation papers. Yet their primary financial support comes from the Federation. Yet they always cover the Federation with mind-numbing detail that is rarely negative. The more such journalists assure me that their papers are not Federation papers, the more...

If The Jewish Week is not a Federation paper, why would it put so much front page space to a dull and pointless story such as this: Top exec out; new president seeks to improve relations with parent body, UJA-Federation.

Like, who cares who the new executive vice president is? Will it make any difference to the education of Jewish kids? No.
