• Jonathan Saul Freedland (born 25 February 1967)[1] is a British journalist who writes a weekly column for The Guardian and used to write for the Jewish Chronicle until, along with Hadley Freeman, David Aaronovitch, David Baddiel and others, he resigned dramatically in September 2024.[2] Freedman also presents BBC Radio 4's contemporary history series The Long View. Freedland also writes thrillers, mainly under the pseudonym Sam Bourne, and has written a play, Jews. In Their Own Words, performed in 2022 at the Royal Court Theatre, London.[3]
• The youngest of three children and the only son of a Jewish couple, biographer and journalist Michael Freedland, and Israeli-born Sara Hocherman,[4] he was educated at University College School, a boys' independent school in Hampstead, London. As a child, Freedland periodically accompanied his father for broadcasting work. On one occasion, his father was interviewing Eric Morecambe, who comically assumed the 10 year-old Freedland was married.[5] After a gap year working on a kibbutz in Israel with the Labour Zionist Habonim Dror (where Freedland had been mentored by Mark Regev, and Freedland was in turn, a mentor to Sacha Baron Cohen[6]), he studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) at Wadham College, Oxford. While at Oxford, he was editor of Cherwell, the student newspaper.
• Freedland began his Fleet Street career at the short-lived Sunday Correspondent. In 1990 he joined the BBC as a news reporter across radio and television, including for The World at One and Today on Radio 4. In 1992, he was awarded the Laurence Stern fellowship[7] on The Washington Post, serving as a staff writer on national news. He was Washington Correspondent for The Guardian from 1993 until 1997, when he returned to London as an editorial writer and columnist.
• Between 2002 and 2004, Freedland was an occasional columnist for the Daily Mirror and from 2005 to 2007 he wrote a weekly column for the London Evening Standard. He wrote a monthly column for The Jewish Chronicle, until ceasing in September 2024 following its publication of news reports said to have been fabricated.[8] He has also been published in The New York Times, The New York Review of Books, Newsweek and The New Republic.
• Freedland was named "Columnist of the Year" in the 2002 What the Papers Say awards and in 2008 was awarded the David Watt Prize for Journalism,[9] in recognition of his essay "Bush's Amazing Achievement", published in The New York Review of Books.[10] Nominated on seven occasions, Freedland was awarded a special Orwell Prize in May 2014 for his journalism.[11][12] In 2016, he won the "Commentariat of the Year" prize at the Comment Awards.[13]
• Freedland was executive editor of the opinion section of The Guardian from May 2014 till early 2016 and continues to write a Saturday column for it.[14][15]
• In November 2019, Freedland apologised for making a "very bad error" in falsely reporting that a shortlisted Labour prospective parliamentary candidate had been fined for making antisemitic remarks on Facebook. He attributed the mistaken identification by confusing two lawyers with the same name to a "previously reliable Labour source" whose information he had "passed on too hastily".[16][17]
• Freedland has published twelve books: three non-fiction works under his own name and nine novels, eight of them under the pseudonym Sam Bourne.
• Bring Home the Revolution: The case for a British Republic (1998), Freedland's first book, argued that Britain should reclaim the revolutionary ideals it exported to America in the 18th century, and undergo a constitutional and cultural overhaul. The book won a W. Somerset Maugham Award for non-fiction and was later adapted into a two-part series for BBC Television.
• Jacob's Gift (2005) is a memoir recounting the lives of three generations of his own Jewish family as well as exploring wider questions of identity and belonging.[18] In 2008, he broadcast a two-part series for BBC Radio 4 – British Jews and the Dream of Zion – as well as two TV documentaries for BBC Four: How to be a Good President[19] and President Hollywood.
• The Righteous Men (2006), is a religious thriller published under the Bourne pen name. It is about a news reporter whose life is disrupted when his wife is kidnapped while he is reporting a story of a militia man found dead. As more murders of 'righteous men' happen across the globe, Will soon finds himself in the middle of a plot to bring about nothing less than Judgement Day.
• The book was followed by another Sam Bourne title, The Last Testament (2007), set against the backdrop of the Middle East peace process. It draws on the author's experiences in that region as a reporter for over twenty years, and a Guardian newspaper sponsored dialogue which was influential in the 2003 Geneva Accords. The central character finds herself involved in a mix of the modern political situation and ancient revelations. The Final Reckoning (2008), was based on the true story of the Avengers: a group of Holocaust survivors who sought revenge against their Nazi persecutors, and just missed the peak of The Sunday Times best-seller list. Just before The Chosen One (2010), the fourth thriller by Sam Bourne was published in the UK, The Bookseller reported in April 2010 that HarperCollins had signed Freedland for three more Bourne books.[20]
• HarperCollins published "Pantheon" in July 2012. Freedland's sixth novel entitled The 3rd Woman, published by HarperCollins in 2015 under his own name. His sixth Bourne novel, To Kill a President, was published by HarperCollins on 4 July 2017.[21] The seventh novel under the Sam Bourne pseudonym, To Kill the Truth, was published in February 2019,[22] and the eighth To Kill a Man, came out in March 2020.[23]
• He is the author of The Escape Artist: The Man Who Broke Out of Auschwitz to Warn the World, a biography of Rudolf Vrba, who participated in the first escape by Jews from the Auschwitz concentration camp.[24] It reached number two in the Sunday Times bestsellers list and was shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize of 2022,[25] the Rathbones Folio Prize,[26] and the Waterstones Book of the Year.[27] In the US it won the National Jewish Book Award in both the Biography and Holocaust categories.[28]
• Freedland is also the writer of a stage play Jews. In Their Own Words. performed at the Royal Court Theatre and directed by Vicky Featherstone in 2022.[29]
• A leading liberal Zionist in the UK,[30] he wrote in 2012 that he uses the word Zionism infrequently, as the word has been misunderstood and has become defined as right-wing.[31] On the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, he believed that military action perpetuates conflict and called for negotiations to end the cycles of violence.[32] He defends Israel's right to exist,[33] but hopes that Israel will recognise the "high price" paid by Palestinians.[33]
• While Jeremy Corbyn was its leader, Freedland accused the Labour Party in the UK of being in denial on the issue of antisemitism,[34][35] but Freedland approves of Keir Starmer's approach to the issue.[36] He has urged the left to treat Jews "the same way you'd treat any other minority".[33] He has also commented on the antisemitic expressions of Palestinians with whom Corbyn has associated and expressed the view that many of the Labour Party's new members were hostile to Jews.[37][38][39][40] Freedland's Labour antisemitism scoop has been criticised for demonising dissent.[41][dubious – discuss]
• Beginning in 2021, Freedland has cohosted a Podcast called "Unholy: Two Jews on the News" with Israeli news anchor and journalist Yonit Levi.[42]
• Freedland is a supporter of projects that seek to preserve Jewish identity and heritage. He has frequently written about the importance of both his faith and his cultural heritage.[43] He has also been active in campaigns to save British Jewish heritage.
