The Jewish Chronicle of Pittsburgh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jewish Chronicle of Pittsburgh is a weekly newspaper published every Thursday for the Jewish community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and the surrounding area. The newspaper is managed, written, owned, and distributed by the Jewish Publication and Education Foundation. Because Pittsburgh has a relatively large population of Jews, especially in Squirrel Hill, the publication has a higher circulation than most other local Jewish newspapers. The Chronicle reports on news occurring in the local Jewish community and city as a whole as well as national and global news that is of Jewish interest. The newspaper has a religious column called the Portion of the Week, usually written by a local rabbi or religious leader. Other features include advertisements, letters to the editors, and a calendar of upcoming community events.
