Reading and travel advisory

Two important warnings I've stumbled upon in the last 24 hours:

- If you don't have what to read, you better buy yourself a nice book than the NYTimes. It used to be a serious source of information decades ago and I built up my passion for English-speaking journalism reading with the highest consideration their news, feature reports and editorials. Gone are the days and especially for someone interested in foreign affairs, you will find a lot of anti-semitic garbage. Again, you better buy a good book instead. 

- Planning to travel in the old Europe? As an observant Jew, you should avoid Copenhagen and Denmark. In case that you like taking risks, you must avoid speaking in Hebrew and displaying Jewish symbols. Honestly, do you think that it is worth to give your money for such an adventure? There are so many beautiful places in the world instead.
