Why? Was it because he was Jewish?

n 1973, Goldwater "licens[ed] Archie for evangelical Christian messages," despite his personal Jewish faith, feeling that the "sentiments were in line with his wholesome family message." [3] The comics were written and illustrated by one of the Archie regulars, Al Hartley, and were published by Spire Christian Comics.

Ten years later, after Goldwater's retirement, the then-publicly traded Archie Comics company was acquired by Richard Goldwater (his son) and Silberkleit's son Michael, returning it to private ownership.[3] In 2009, Goldwater's son Jonathan was named CEO of Archie Comics. Why did Goldwater have more say than Maurice and Louis? Because he was Jewish? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.167.16.15 (talk) 11:41, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
