J. J. Goldberg, editorial director of the newspaper The Forward, in 1997 published a study of this myth regarding the United States,[34] concluding that, although Jews do hold many prominent positions in the U.S. media industry, they "do not make a high priority of Jewish concerns" and that Jewish Americans generally perceive the media as anti-Israel.[35] Variants on this theme have focused on Hollywood, the press,[36][37][38][39] and the music industry.[40][41][42][43][44]
