The Jewish Chronicle
|
|
Founded in 1841, The Jewish Chronicle (affectionately known as The JC) is the United Kingdom's national Jewish newspaper. It has played a central role in the development of UK Jewry and has the distinction of being the oldest continuously published Jewish newspaper in the world. It appears every Friday providing news, views, social, cultural and sports reports, as well as lively editorial and a spectrum of readers opinions on the letter page.
It is entirely independent and is owned by The Kessler Foundation, a charitable trust which has overall control of the newspaper and its assets. In this way, the newspaper is protected from takeover by predators, ensuring that its editorial independence and integrity is upheld at all times.
