Wow, I thought this was going to be just a video of you flipping through newspapers, but it was a thorough, balanced, well-prepared presentation. It could be a college media course! Thank you for your perspective.
That was fascinating. Thank you for developing thus subject so thoroughly and offering your critique of both sides. This helped me understand both hasidic and secular media more clearly.
Having learned so much about this community because of your well-balanced reporting and explanations, I was sad to see how you were so misunderstood and represented in one newspaper. The author clearly wrote without interviewing you. If he--assuming a man wrote the piece--had spoken with you, the piece would have been much different. Thank you for your thorough presentation. Well done.
Hey Frieda, Glad to hear from you. we spoke just at the beginning of the pandemic when I planned to take a tour in Williamsburg. Now I can't convince my wife to go to New York seeing the increasing crime and all that mess in NYC. B.H. we are heading towards better times.
Gabe, New York is fine. It sounds scarier from the outside. We here feel very safe. Tell your wife it's a great time to travel. Everything is so lively!
I’m sorry you see daily killing in the subways. In broad daylight - shootings in Manhattan. Guy got killed visiting his son at college in westchester- close to my home town ,,, crime is everywhere- it’s sad what has happened to NYC !
Interesting video. Good to see Yiddish as a language is continuing, although it would be great to have more secular Yiddish content too! Maybe one day :)
I am so glad I found your channel. You are a very interesting addition to my understanding of an interesting part of our shared world. How are the rabbis educated and how do the rules on Kosher, not Kosher, kinds of Kosher get developed., decided and enforced? Side note….you missed science, economics, business and health in mainstream and community papers.
Big Up fi yuh per dis bredren and nuff of his friendren and was asking me about Hasidic Jews because I’ve garnered quite a bit of info about Jewish people in NYC, London, Baltimore, Cleveland, Israel, etc. The thing is, I kept getting so many questions, I told them that I’m essentially West Indian with a worldwide curiosity but limited in my Jewish Curriculum and that perhaps I could find someone more pertinent than me and thankfully I came across the golden Jewell which is you so thank you tremendously for bridging divides.
Outstanding. The Purim costume ads in Hasidic Israeli ones are hilarious, even though costumes are all kosher variants (no sexy Malkas Esther), the girls' faces are either censored or fuzzy. This basically puts Esther or Rachel at the position of being an oxymoron of religious, hot temptresses that need to be censored (not to mention the girl models are like 8), but oh well. I think we're one step before that, meaning pictures of men are allowed, and so at least the ad can show the boys, but then again, there's probably less of those than secular papers, either (and I'm not familiar with specifically satmar publications, only general hasidic, mostly litvak & sephardi)
Thanks for making this, it was very informative. I realize that this is an older video so not sure if Frieda will see this comment, but it would be interesting to see and hear how, if at all, any of the news around transgender kids, LGTBQ+ discussion in public schools, etc., and the politics around that is covered, and to what extent it is even discussed (publicly or in the home) in the Hasidic community. I assume that the more outward facing Hasids (especially Chabad) and those who work in secular settings would hear about these issues. Also if NYC or other governments advertised something like monkeybox vaccination would the Hasidic newspapers accept those advertisements for publication?
Krishna, thanks for your comments. LGBTQ issues are not acknowledged in Yiddish newspapers but I think they are acknowledged in a disparaging way in the conservative English language newspapers - although I'm not sure! One thing is for certain, the Yiddish newspapers definitely run ads for the city telling people to get vaccinated. Almost in every issue!
Watermelons and popcorn are a must have for those long summer Shabbos afternoons. Todays day and age there are so many different magazines available, hard to get through them in one Shabbos.
Frieda, have you noticed that everyone misreads the title of McCluhan's first book? The title is "The Medium is the MAssage" not "MEssage". That's always puzzled me that people mispronounce the title. McCluhan's intent with that title is to persuade people that the medium "mAssages" people into agreeing with McCluhan's thesis, which is that whatever medium presents the "message" comes biased with built-in influences to the way people perceive issues and think about them... Of course the "meme" now complicates communication ever further, esp. with online users. The idea of the "meme" comes from Richard Dawkins in his book "The Selfish Gene"
Wow isn’t that interesting. Thank you. You are absolutely right that the medium massages the message. I wish more people understood how powerful the medium is.
I'm enjoying all your videos, thank you. But I am confused by the Yiddish ads for the newspapers and other products. If the Hasidim are prohibited from using TV and the Internet, who sees these ads?

Erlekh geredt ... Take a look at pre... let's say 1960s rural to small town newspapers. Sure, you'd see photos of women. Nice and proper photos, of nice and proper women, farnumen mit nice and proper women's zakhn. *And,* there'd be a whole list of words, that were not allowed to be printed, at all, no matter what. You would also not see anything of a scandal story. Hero stories, stories about individual people would be a depends. Music or movie star, not a word. Police officer retires, very short, crisp, and to the point. Even politics would be kept vague, not to offend any readers. _(Aka; everything an absolute _*_G_*_ rating.)_ So the issue is moral code, and how di eydishe tseytungen haven't changed, bshes di goyishe hobn.
That is only Williamsburgh in Crown Heights,Boro Park & Flatbush you can get the Daily News,the NY Post & the NY Times at many of the chassidishe owned groceries also you forgot Der Algemeiner Journal which is made by a Lubavitcher & HaMachane HaChareidi which is Belz
What is interesting that they will not center a story around the person or people Yet they idolize the Rebbe. Just and interesting perception on my part.

If they are so perfect, why put others down? Assumptions (we all know what assume does)
Frieda....I am really enjoying your videos. They are windows into a very interesting, rich & complicated culture. Thank you for sharing.
It's so interesting learning about the many facets of this vibrant American sub-community of Jewish people.

Good points about what I missed… all of these are also included in Hasidic papers.
I will try to one day cover these issues.
Love your thorough evaluations and comparisons. Thank you.

An idea for future video would be Yiddish and Hebrew calligraphy. Love your Chanel
Well done Frieda ! My dad RIP read the Yiddish papers !
What a fascinating video! Thank you for providing insight into how this historic culture exists within such a rapidly evolving world
I love you guys. Wish I was part of the community.

Perhaps that woman should go on or send somebody on one of your tours and see if you really are a "rotten" woman. 🤔😇
Ha ha. I like your thinking.

What about the “Der Forvard” “the yiddishe forward”, Is that something you ever see?
I'm enjoying all your videos, thank you. But I am confused by the Yiddish ads for the newspapers and other products. If the Hasidim are prohibited from using TV and the Internet, who sees these ads?
A lot of Hasidim are nowadays online so that's where those ads play. On Hasidic internet forums.
They print in at the NYDN printing plant in north Jersey
Thanks - question: what's NYDN?

So the issue is moral code, and how di eydishe tseytungen haven't changed, bshes di goyishe hobn.
How is that community toward vaccines in general, since the Amish in our area are let's say cautious.
I'll be putting up a video interview with a doctor in the next week or two.
That is only Williamsburgh in Crown Heights,Boro Park & Flatbush you can get the Daily News,the NY Post & the NY Times at many of the chassidishe owned groceries also you forgot Der Algemeiner Journal which is made by a Lubavitcher & HaMachane HaChareidi which is Belz
...rotten way of life...
the editor must be very proud of that
pride is pumping out
What is interesting that they will not center a story around the person or people Yet they idolize the Rebbe. Just and interesting perception on my part.
Yes, the center fold often has rebbe stories and he is the center of it. But it's not a human interest story.
No one on Earth should have respect for Hilary Clinton
