Yossi Aron OAM – The Jewish media in Australia is 130 years old

Malka Lawrence speaks with Yossi Aron OAM, Religious Affairs Editor of the Australian Jewish News, as they delve into 130 years of the Jewish press in Australia, a history that has informed, connected, and reflected our community through immigration waves, cultural shifts, and changing technologies. From the first English-language papers of the 1890s to the dynamic Yiddish press of the 1930s, and from post-war rebuilding to today’s digital era, the Jewish press has served as our mirror, our memory, and our voice. The conversation draws on Yossi’s deep insight as a journalist, historian, and one of the most respected commentators on Australian Jewish communal life. He shares how the press has both chronicled and shaped the identity, debates, and evolution of Australian Jewry. A concise, rich look at the legacy and lasting impact of Jewish journalism and the generations it continues to connect.
