Naomi G. – Cleveland, Summer 2018

“As an intern with the Jerusalem Post, I’ve had the opportunity to cover all sorts of stories around central Israel. I’ve covered a food technology conference in Rehovot, a protest outside the Knesset and a press conference in Tel Aviv with a-ha, the band who sings ‘Take On Me.’ The last few weeks, I’ve also been responsible for choosing readers’ photos for the Friday magazine. The other interns at my office are fantastic—we bounce ideas off each other all the time and it’s nice to have someone with whom to go out for lunch. Working for a newspaper not written in the local language comes with its own unique challenges, but journalism is no less important for protecting democracy. Subscribe to your local newspaper!”
