Times of Israel Editor David Horovitz said: “As an ex-Londoner, I’m particularly delighted that the Jewish News has become our local partner for the UK. Meeting with their young, smart editorial team, led by editor Richard Ferrer, at their offices a few weeks ago, I quickly saw how it is that the Jewish News has become such an essential read. Its writers and editors are dedicated, curious and skilled – a winning combination in journalism. I’m delighted that our partnership will help ensure their work is widely read online, complementing their weekly print edition.”
