Can anyone imagine alcoholic beverages or pork ads being allowed to appear in the Muslim media? Of course not. Muslim publishers have far more self-esteem, reverence for their religion and respect for their readers to act like avaricious, greedy and dollar-hungry graspers. But unfortunately Jewish News readers expect nothing better from its publisher. They meekly accept being spat in the face - again and again.
The above avertisement is from last week's issue. This week the AJN has a larger - half-page - ad, which reveals that the people behind this Chillul Shabbat outfit are the "Sawicki Group".
According to our research they also own Bay City Holden. Maybe something Shabbat-observers would like to keep in mind when looking for a new car.
And as we havestated more than once before, the rabbis and lay-leaders of our community are rarely heard to open their mouths in protest thus doing their part in ensuring that the AJN keeps getting away with it. Isn't it time that they woke up to themselves?
And what about the RCV and the COSV? Why are they hiding in a corner and not tackling this head-on?
And talking of offensive ads, here's the first of the non-Kosher and Chametz bakery "Passover" ads (from the same issue) for this year:
