Bring "The Jewish Observer" Back

http://groups.google.com/group/bring-the-jo-back

Please join us to discuss how we can convince the Agudath Israel of America to bring The Jewish Observer back into print. Even if you don't have any ideas to share, your joining the group is tantamount to signing a petition to see the JO brought back to life!

  1. RYGB: Thanks for pursuing this noble endeavor. However, I am not sure that a google group is the way to accomplish this goal. The Agudah still frowns on anything internet related. I recall you had some correspondence with them regarding this topic. Who in the Agudah is responsible for this decision? Private convesations with those responsible is probably the best way to go.

  2. Check out the group's membership list so far and note how many email addresses end @agudathisrael.org! I specifically started a google group for this purpose because it is basically a fancy email list, no web access required if not desired.

    In any event, Chaim David Zwiebel is the executive officer with ultimate responsibility - I have invited him to the group. I do not which lay leaders would have to be in on the decision.
