Likud ministers drop out of Channel 12 confab after Netanyahu attack
Likud ministers Israel Katz, Miri Regev, and David Amsalem have canceled their participation in a September 5 conference hosted by Channel 12, The Marker business daily reports.
The snubs come after Netanyahu attacked the network over its coverage of the criminal investigations against him. According to a Haaretz report, the prime minister urged his ministers not to attend “so as not to give them legitimacy.”
There is one exception, however: Likud MK Gideon Sa’ar, who is seen as a possible successor to Netanyahu, still plans to attend.
