Herzog requests PM be forbidden from meddling in broadcaster affair
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleOpposition leader Issac Herzog has asked Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit to review Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s involvement in the debate over the public broadcaster.
Herzog asks Mandelblit to forbid Netanyahu from involvement in any issue relating to communications or the media until “limits are determined.”
He says the prime minister’s attempts to control the public broadcaster are “blatant and crude.”
Herzog earlier successfully sued to have Netanyahu give up his role as communications minister, a post that was handed to close Netanyahu confidant Tzachi Hanegbi.
