It was reported that the CEO of Channel 13 Israel Tavito criticized channel employees and the Board of Directors of the The Second Authority for Television and Radio, and shed light on the crisis with the channel's reporters, as well as the motive of their protest."For all intents and purposes, the company has been operating for without an editor-in-chief," Tavito was quoted as saying.Tavito also said he was removed from his position as CEO and no londer served as the editor-in-chief. "There's an internal group that compartmentalizes network employees, that is in charge of some of the company's news broadcasts. I requested again to use the normal group we had used up until that point, but the request was denied by the committee of journalists, a decision that was supported by the company's journalists."שמחים ש״רשת״ חוזרת בה ומאפשרת לעיתונאי חדשות 13 לשדר ממשפט נתניהו מחר. חבל שנדרשה לשם כך עתירה לבג״ץ, וחבל יותר על טענות השווא בדבר ״חשש לשיבוש״ משדר שלקראתו חברת החדשות נערכת שבועות. למען הסר ספק וכדי להפריך ספינים: מעולם לא היתה כוונה לאיש מאנשי חדשות 13 כל כוונה לשבש את השידור https://t.co/Hr3fYTRULN
