Another “Jewish right” is that the Associated Press shall print what the Jews want printed and in exactly the tone the Jews desire. This is perhaps one of the factors in the loss of luster on the part of the Associated Press of late years, the feeling that it is too much under the influence of certain groups, which are not non-Jewish groups. Newspapermen all sense this; A.P. men throughout the country sense it; but they express it in newspaper terms; they say “The A.P. gives a New York coloring to everything.” But the ingredients of the New York coloring are 85 per cent Jewish.
From a survey of the demands, these appear to be some of the “Jewish rights” which the Kehillah and the American Jewish Committee are organized to secure. And how far they say they have succeeded, we shall next see.
