The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle is a monthly Jewish newspaper, published in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was established in 1921 by a pair of German Jews, Nathan J. Gould and Irving G. Rhodes.[1] The editor is Rob Golub.[2]

Golub won two 2016 Milwaukee Press Club awards for Excellence in Journalism, for an editorial and a critical review in the Chronicle.[3]

A former editor was Andrew Muchin who resigned after running an editorial calling for the resignation of then-Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.[4]
