Rivlin says delay in broadcaster launch undermines democracy
President Reuven Rivlin says a government decision to push off the opening of the public broadcaster to 2018 — rather than 2017 — compromises Israel’s democracy.
“Without a public broadcaster, we will be a democratic state with a certain disability,” says Rivlin. “Woe to us if we reach a situation in which there is no public broadcaster in Israel.”
