  This is the guide for creating links in posts and pages: http://en.support.wordpress.com/links/
  This is the general link model:
  <a href="URL HERE">Highlighted anchor text here</a>

  Enter the anchor text you want to link to first.
  Re-Capturing The Friedman Story
  Then use your mouse to highlight that anchor text.
  Next click the chain icon in the editor and proceed to create the link.
  <a href="http://www.thejewishweek.com/news/new-york-news/re-capturing-friedman-story">Re-Capturing The Friedman Story</a>
  The result will be this link: /re-capturing-friedman-story”>Re-Capturing The Friedman Story
