The Atlanta Jewish Times

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Atlanta Jewish Times is a weekly community newspaper serving the Jewish community of Atlanta, Georgia, United States.

The newspaper began publishing as the Southern Israelite in 1925. In the 1980s, it was purchased by Charles "Chuck" Buerger, the owner of the Baltimore Jewish Times. Buerger died in 1996, and the paper was taken over by his son, Andrew. In 2000, Andrew Buerger sold it, along with The Detroit Jewish News, to Jewish Renaissance Media,[1] which also operates the website Jewish.com.

In 2005, it claimed a readership of 25,000.[2]

As of 2007, Arthur M. Horwitz was the publisher and Michael Jacobs the Managing Editor.
