Sound No. 13 - How Chabad, Satmar, etc. Hack the System
Episode description
This is a quick take as a way of introduction for a broader podcast with Sholem Aleichem. We hope to record this longer podcast tomorrow. But this will set up some themes for the conversation.
Jewish Encyclopedia - Apostle (regarding Sound No. 12 – מיהו יהודי and the Jerusalem Council).
Investigative reporting is absent from the Hareidy press. But still strong in the NYT. Specifically, the author of the articles about Satmar NYT: Brian M. Rosenthal. Brian won the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for his investigations of the NY Taxi industry. Nothing of this caliber exist in the Jewish or Hareidy press. They are afraid to look in the mirror. While their communities are rotten and corrupt, they pretend to take a high moral ground in relationship to others.
