Sure, NYT is the proper venue for this reform "Rabbi"....

and the sinas chinam begins...

[Moshe123]

I know because the Chasam Sofer and R' Shiyele of Belz and the Chafetz Chaim who fought against the mizrachi/reform possessed sinas chinam.
Sure, they even wrote articles in Der Spiegel.

Did they attack the people or their arguments?  Where's the halacha that says advocating against the Chief Rabbinate is assur?

They attacked the people as well.
I don't hold much of the Rabbinate, but this is a case of a reform "Rabbi" trying to fight for recognition by a semi-Orthodox organization.

I don't mean this in an accusatory manner, but which of his positions makes him 'Reform'?  Where are you getting that from?

1) Writing in the NYT on a personal dispute he had.

Ok, and we can add malshin to his list of aveiros. Perhaps he thinks malshinus is also old fashioned.

You have a problem with the community, and you take it to the New York Times?

Are you joking? Fine, call it conservative, conservadox, open orthodox, whatever. I'm not very particular on the distinctions once you aren't a shomer torah u'mitzvos.

and the sinas chinam begins...

What does this have to do with sinas chinam. I'm fine friends with some of his big followers. We get along, come to each other's simchos, etc. I don't think sinas chinam means you aren't supposed to know and state what your religion believes in.

All of the increased revenue from selling VR's allowed them to cut tobacco products.

But on a serious note, really impressive to cut what I am sure is a big money-maker

Very strange decision, IMO. I have a hard time imagining the market won't punish them for it.

1. I assume sooner rather than later the other major pharmacies will follow suit
2. Sounds like they were getting hurt recently anyways with tobacco sales
3. It's a difference in earnings of 7 cents a share, not huge
