Mobilized Media vs. One Channel That Stayed Loyal to the Public: That’s the Difference ⚖️
During the 2023 protests, in the view of many critics, the masks of the Israeli media finally fell, and the difference between the studios was exposed in full:
* On Channels 11, 12, and 13: In the view of critics, the anchors and commentators in the studios openly became an integral part of the protest bloc. According to their critics, they did not merely report on the protests — they also helped promote their messages, served as a voice for protesters, and echoed their messages directly from the broadcasts, while giving a tailwind to road blockers and to what critics described as anarchy that, they argued, continued without sufficient enforcement. As part of this, according to critics, they provided exclusive and sympathetic coverage of the phenomenon of non-reporting for military service, while repeatedly highlighting and amplifying the names of the military units of those refusing to serve. In addition, according to their critics, the studios actively encouraged moves to withdraw money from Israel and harm investment in Israel as a means of pressuring the government, while, according to their critics, showing complete tolerance toward the deliberate disruption of citizens’ lives and national infrastructure such as Ben Gurion Airport and the railway.
* On Channel 14: They presented a sharp and uncompromising mirror image. There, in the view of many, they reflected the pain felt by a large part of the public and viewed road blockers and those encouraging non-reporting for military service — who, according to critics, acted without sufficient enforcement — as “barn burners” tearing apart the army, the state, and national unity from within. As part of this, presenter Sara Beck was even seen crying live on air — tears of genuine national pain, in the view of many, in response to images of anarchy and harm to the country.
The shameful political mobilization, in the view of critics, of the mainstream channels, versus Channel 14’s defensive stance 🛡️ — that’s the difference.
