Introduction

 

what is j.?

 

j. is the Jewish news weekly of Northern California.


j. is bold and innovative. Its magazine-style format is appealing to readers of all ages. Our subscribers are affluent, educated and support a broad range of advertisers. Each week, we reach 20,000 households in the seventh-largest Jewish market in the United States.


j. has a design geared toward enhancing advertising. Our research has indicated that magazine-format publications are kept longer and read more regularly and with greater interest than traditional newspaper formats.


j. covers the true reange of what it means to be Jewish today -- from politics to the arts, religion and food, spirituality and community.


j., formerly the Jewish Bulletin, has been publishing for over 110 years.
