    “Zman STILL has a prominent Monsey Rov as their Rabbinic Advisor.”

    I just confirmed that Zman has not had a rav for over a year.

    Joseph: If that’s the case, then no publication should exist. But I don’t know if I agree with you. Does every restaurant have to have a talmid chochom chef who pours in every ingredient? Or at least looking over the should of every single movement every single cook in the kitchen does?

    “If the weeklies don’t have a Rov approving every word printed, I’m not sure how they are any different than the Coffee Room or many websites.”

    I don’t know if a Rav is needed to approve every word. But I think one is needed to answer macro questions like the concept of an article or the direction of a publication. E.g. ownership might want an article because it will sell, but a Rav thinks there are negatives, and the negatives outweigh the positives. That’s what you need a Rav for. And that’s why ownership might not want a Rav. An ehrlich owner/publication will have a Rav. Otherwise, the public may be consuming treif without even knowing it.

    Zman STILL has a prominent Monsey Rov as their Rabbinic Advisor.

    Rabbi Veiner used to be the Rav but he is no longer. They don’t have one it seems.

    So because a mashgiach might cost money let the restaurant operate without rabbinic supervision?

    Please be respectful. If having a Rav on a magazine does not ensure the kashrus of its words, then certainly if there is no Rav isn’t it virtually bound to have treif? No?

    IMHO, treif words are much more subtle to detect than treife food ingredients.
