Manishma:
The sales pitch WAS “Internet: We can’t live with it, we can’t live without it” Internet al pi torah.

there, I Corrected that for you.

They dumped that pitch two weeks before the asifa because they felt it was more important to fill the stadium with bodies then to fill our minds with useful information as to how to actually deal with the internet.

We need to get out our daled amos sometimes to comprehend how we look to even intelligent and sensitive people “out there” – And one should do so, and think about the issue, when dafka making an event public.

This entire thing looked so incredibly stupid and backwards to most…Rabbi Mannis Friedman’s approach made sense to the people who asked me what are my thoughts on the matter…but not the angry spectacle of the asifa…B”H a lot of it was in Yiddish!

Seems that their report was completely accurate.

The asifa was advertised as ‘Overcoming The Challenges Of Technology’ – by what? not using it?

The sales pitch eas “Internet: We can’t live with it, we can’t live without it” Internet al pi torah. The Torah has Mitzvas Asay and Mitzvas Lo sa’asay. Saying no to everything is an easy way out.

Yes, who spoke and what did they say? I have seen much photos but no speeches.

There is a button to flag a post as being inappropriate and/or abusive.

I’m wondering if there is a similiar button to flag an article?

Shameful YWN, shameful. Your media is no less venemous and one-sided than theirs.

Why is this obvious editorial opinion passed off as “news?”

How about this headline? “YWN Grabs Opportunity to Accurately Bash Israel Secular Media and create more Sinah in the Jewish World”
