JONJ in Japan Times


JewOrNotJew.com is mentioned in this article in the Japan Times, of all places (second paragraph from the bottom).
Say what you will about Adam Sandler's brand of adolescent humor, the guy has done more to promote Hanukkah than any other Jewish entertainer in recent memory — even if his "The Hanukkah Song" is basically a goof and a lot of Jews themselves are embarrassed by it. The purpose of the song is not really to celebrate the Festival of Lights but rather to out supposedly closeted Jews in show business. In that regard it does have something of an educational side to it, but the Web site "Jew or Not Jew" does a better, and much funnier, job of that.
Happy Hanukkah!
