Rabbi Weisner's KCL (Lakewood) sent out a Shoichet to inspect a large shechita for them. He came back with an excellent report. We have a video to show how the shechita operated the day before the "scheduled-inspection" and the day after the "scheduled-inspection". NOTE: It was not at the Yeshivishe Shechita (whatever that is?) As Advertised "Rabbi Weisner's KCL approves Yeshivishe Shechita" what else is new? That should give you comfort, depending on what you are looking for.
The day of the scheduled inspection was a "show 'n tell".
Reb Moshe Feinstein, Z"L told me that a shechita must have an open door policy and if any changes are made when a visitor comes to inspect to stay away from that shechita. reb Moshe added "even if they can defend the ietems they do when there are no outsiders".
Limiting visitors to .....e.g. Smicha Rabonim, Pulpit Rabonom, Roshei Chaburah should raise a red flag.

Does Friedman have the same shochtim as Agriprocessors?

Nearly 2,000 people, mostly adolescent and young adult males in Orthodox Jewish communities in New York and New Jersey, have contracted mumps since last summer, according to health officials.
In Thursday's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports 1,521 mumps cases, using data collected before end of January. But CNN has learned that the number is now at least 1,996.
New York City Health officials report 909 confirmed cases as of February 8. Most of those sickened are young adult males, said Dr. Jane Zucker, assistant commissioner for the New York Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
New York state health officials told CNN that Orange County, New York, is reporting 611 confirmed cases and neighboring Rockland County reports 317. Ocean County, New Jersey, health officials have at least 159 confirmed cases.
Health officials in all jurisdictions are still investigating other possible cases of mumps.
CDC officials trace the origin of this outbreak to a summer camp for Orthodox Jewish boys in Sullivan County, New York, last June. That's when an 11-year-old boy arrived at the camp after having spent time in the United Kingdom, which has been dealing with its own mumps outbreak -- it saw about 7,400 cases last year.
Both the CDC and health officials in New York and New Jersey say the outbreak is still primarily confined to specific religious communities in their states. "Much of the current outbreak is occurring in congregate settings, where prolonged, close contact among persons might be facilitating transmission," CDC officials say in the weekly report.
Health officials say they believe there are several reasons why this outbreak is confined to these religious communities. One is that young men in particular are spending many hours in school, "often face-to-face with a study partner," according to the CDC's weekly report. It is likely community transmission also occurs within large families.
Mumps is spread by people sneezing or coughing, sending the virus-laden droplets through the air. People can also get infected by touching surfaces that a sick person has touched. Once infected, someone can transmit the virus for a day or two before showing any symptoms of the illness and for up to five days after symptoms appear, according to the CDC.
Symptoms of illness include fever, headache, muscle aches, loss of appetite and swelling of the salivary glands, causing the jaw and cheeks to swell. More serious complications can include inflammation of the brain, swelling of the testicles or ovaries, and deafness, according to the CDC. Adults are at higher risk for serious complications.
Health officials note that lack of vaccination is not to blame in this mumps outbreak, which is the largest since 2006, when 6,584 were in an outbreak that originated on a college campus.
"This is a well-vaccinated community," said Zucker from New York City's health department.
But the vaccine isn't 100 percent effective. Vanderbilt University's Dr. William Schaffner, who also is president-elect of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, says studies have shown that the mumps vaccine is about 85 percent effective.
The CDC notes in the weekly report that this outbreak shows that mumps can occur in highly vaccinated populations. However, Schaffner added that the mumps vaccine "is not perfect but considerably effective, and if someone gets the mumps even though they've been immunized, the symptoms will be milder."

What's the matter Yudel, Lamm's won't let you visit?
Bodek has greenhouse romaine now?
Do you trust Hisachdus for this as much as Rav Vaye & R' Shea Katz on Postiv?
Ignore the Yudels "Mistake" guy. He's nothing but an annoying grogger and he was picked apart by the readers on UOJ for his taking things out of context and outright lies.
you quote R' Moshe. Besides the question if its possible to verify if its true or not, do you have the guts to write what the other gedolime of that time told you? Are you willing to really tell the truth on what the sazid regarding your mehalech?
Yener apokoros writes on his blog that he doesn't have proof but suspects that KCL is trying to get into Postville and that Weissmandl had conniptions when he found out Friedman would be maskim to take them on as a 3rd hashgocho.
A blogger named Starman writes this:
I heard that HF needed a new hashgocha bc weissmandel
Was paying cash and insisted on keeping shochtim without
Documents. When HF objected, weissmandel threatened to
Pull out, and accuse HF of minding his business or walk
Out. That's why he brought in tartikov for a tour and
That's when Rabbi W lost his marbles threw a tantrum right with
Babad watching. He even threatened his people to storm out
And tried to stop production
It was babad my brother saw him
The crazy thing is he removed his hashgacha from supreme
But still uses that name on beef he certifies from uraguay
So all along he's been fooling people to think that beef
Was from agri and now he's adding confusion by pulling
His hasgocha from supreme kosher which he has allowed
Others to use...I'm really confused by this brilliant
Schemer.
The funny thing is I think supreme kosher is a former
Agri trademark that weismandel "borrowed".

Seems like Hershey Friedman does not have a heter arkaos to go after Weissmandel.
Hershey Friedman can afford the $100 for a Mayshorim heter arkoas
