Behind the Scenes:

Canary Mission – Revealed

Investigative stories take time – and resources.

Reader support makes those stories happen.

After much intensive research, Forward staff writer Josh Nathan-Kazis published his explosive series of articles, drawing back the curtain on Canary Mission's hidden tactics.

• In 2015, Josh was the first to reveal this secretive online blacklist that targets college students who are critical of Israel, spreading fear and harming their job prospects.

• In his most recent report, Josh skillfully identified one of the site's major donors – the Helen Diller Family Foundation – a fund of the Jewish Community Federation of San Francisco, one of the largest Jewish charities in the U.S.

• Following last week's article, the foundation announced that it will no longer support Canary Mission.
