'Interviews with 34 people, including yeshiva graduates, parents & education scholars, illuminated deep flaws in [nytimes] reporting...because of what it includes & what it excludes. Several people called it 'cartoonish' or 'a caricature.'' -slowhoneybee
A.G. Sulzberger, the New York Times’s publisher, knows his paper’s reporting on New York’s Hasidic yeshivas troubles members of the Jewish community. Still, Sulzberger has twice misrepresented those concerns. In an article for the Columbia Journalism Review and then an interview with the New Yorker, Sulzberger claimed critics accept the reporting as true but worry about its misuse. Sulzberger added, “We heard from countless members of the community saying, ‘We needed this.
The newspaper covered elected officials’ “grave concerns” and the New York State Board of Regents adopting proposed regulations after the first yeshiva article appeared last September. Yet, the yeshiva series never featured the story of New York Supreme Court Justice Christina Ryba hobbling NYSED’s plans to regulate yeshivas in March.
A recent Princeton graduate who had attended a yeshiva offered another perspective: “I’m not sure why it’s different if a rabbi or a celebrity endorses. In Eric Adams’s [mayoral] race, Maya Wiley had no chance. AOC endorsed her, and [Wiley] became a serious contender. It’s almost like AOC is the rabbi of progressives.”
