Jewish news website launched in Argentina

03 May 2005

A news website about Argentine Jewry has been launched. News about Jewish life, festivities, social and political matters in Argentina are now available at www.prensajudia.com, in Spanish. “I felt there was an empty space. I realized massive non-Jewish media lacked important information about the community. This site will mainly be a tool for them”, Daniel Berliner, the director of the "Agencia Judía de Noticias" (Jewish News Agency), which is run by Iton Gadol, told JTA. Berliner is also director of Iton Gadol. Started three years ago, the group prints 11,000 copies of its monthly newspaper and its website www.itongadol.com.ar receives 340,000 visits per month.
