Opinion

Dear Editor:

About 15 years before Donald Trump uprooted the status quo by calling out all the fake news in the mainstream media, Bernie Goldberg, the longtime executive producer for CBS Evening News anchor Dan Rather, authored a book titled, Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News. One of his main contentions in the book was how the mainstream media curates the news by including stories that fit the desired narrative, while excluding stories that challenge or run contrary to the narrative.

Dear Editor:

I read the opinions here about proper dress for davening, and I want to offer my own take, both as a proud Torah Jew and as a wardrobe stylist.

Dear Editor:

Life was much simpler when Warren Hecht stuck to bike riding and hockey columns. This past week, he attempted to make hay over a guilty verdict rendered against Donald Trump by a Manhattan jury in the E. Jean Carrol trial.

Dear Editor:

I have read with interest and appreciation the comments of Rav Yoel Schonfeld, in your issue prior to Pesach, regarding the importance of proper dress during davening. A letter to the editor took issue with Rabbi Schonfeld and felt that a person should dress, while davening, in a way that makes one feel “comfortable.”

Dear Editor:

As avid weekly readers of the “Dating Today” column in the QJL, we were disheartened to read the antagonistic letter directed at Goldy Krantz two weeks ago. We want to express our support for Goldy and her invaluable contributions to our community.

Dear Editor:

 Samuel Mark, in his letter to the editor two issues ago, took me to task for a number of issues. I do not wish to respond to his entire lengthy letter, especially since good portions of it made no sense to me.
