OF LONE PINE IN CROSSWINDS 855-0480 ding to Mr. Friedman's arti- cle, had written a memo detailing Mr. Carroll's speech to a left-leaning Jew- ish group in suburban Maryland last year. That memo, written in a way that implied that there was something almost subver- sive in Mr. Carroll's atten- dance at the event, ended up in the hands of a prominent Jewish activist who alleged- ly shared it with the publisher of the Jewish Week — the reason Mr. Carroll was eased from his job, ac- cording to Mr. Friedman. In fact, the memo sum- marized the comments of two journalists who spoke to the Maryland group. The other one was me. My initial reaction was to wonder what gives these people the right to keep a file on me, and perhaps to share contents of that file with people with whom I must deal on a daily basis. But the fact is, almost every organization involved in the political fray "keeps files," as conspiracy buffs like to say. Common subjects are writers and editors, as well as politicians and ac- tivists representing oppos- ing viewpoints. And, if truth be told, these groups have a right — some would see it as an obligation to their constituents — to add to these files their evaluations of these speeches and stories. But there are some tricky distinctions here. One involves how that in- formation is acquired. Is it taken from the public record? Is it gathered by ac- tivists who openly attend a speech, for instance, and take notes? Or is it obtained by stealth — under false pretenses, through decep- tion? The Friedman story alleg- ed that some of AIPAC's in- formation is gathered clan- destinely — an unsavory concept, and one that makes me, as a reporter, uncomfor- table. But would it have made a difference if the AIPAC intern had publicly iden- tified himself or herself before my speech? Another issue involves how that information is used. If that memo had re- mained in the hands of AIPAC professionals and of- ficers, for their internal use, I would have had no objec- tions to its existence. But what if it had been distributed widely to Jewish leaders in Washington? What if it had been used in an attempt to convince my editor that my judgments as a reporter were unreliable — exactly what Mr. Friedman alleges happened in the cased of the Washington Jewish Week? In that case, I would have been outraged, even though I accept the fact that AIPAC, like every other group engaged in public advocacy, has a legitimate interest in monitoring the news and the objectivity of the people who report the news. The critical issue is that a journalist can, and should, be judged by what he writes and the publication he edits. That public record, built up over time and easily docu- mented, should weight far more heavily than a remark made at a less than formal presentation. Even so, Andy Carroll's comments at that gathering were moderate and respon- sible. If, as the Friedman story suggests, the memo detailing our speeches was The Friedman story alleged that some of AIPAC's information is gathered clandestinely. used to force him out of his job, it represents an outrageous kind of "guilt by association" argument that' has no place in organized Jewish life. Again, fine lines — easily c_ crossed in the heat of the - game, but deserving of extra care by journalists and ac- tivists alike. The Jewish community has a responsibility to vigor- ously pursue the issues it cares about in the political arena. And this means using the tools commonly accepted by the political community, tools that may not appear in the pages of high-school civics books. But the Jewish community '- is also a moral community. As such, it has a respon- sibility to continually reex- amine its political behavior through the lens of Jewish law and tradition and morality. Politics and ethics are not easy partners. But the Jew- ish community has a special responsibility to constantly strive for some kind of bal- ance. That goes for Jewish groups who man the tren- ches in Washington — and for Jewish journalists. ❑
