I’m Rebecca Massel, a junior at Columbia University, and I spent this past summer as an intern at the Forward.
I got an inside look at how the Forward’s journalism is created and why it’s so unique among Jewish media outlets for truthful, balanced coverage. My editors told me to listen to experts and also community members, and to always pursue the full story.
The Forward taught me how to use my words to amplify others’ stories and hold those with power accountable.
