What happens to a locating committee for the position in which it itself holds office.
The head of the news department is a key position, and there is reason to be flawed in the decision of a temporary commander to appoint such a senior position in a permanent appointment.
Journalist Ilan Lior has been appointed head of the news department of Gali Tzahal, the military station announced today (Sunday). He also edited radio programs, having
previously served as a program editor for Channel 10 (now 13) and was a reporter for Haaretz and the Israel Broadcasting Authority.
However, the appointment of Lior Haboker, in place of Amir Ivgi, who left a few weeks ago after quite a bit of friction with the acting GLC commander and the station's editor-in-chief, Galit Altstein, raises quite a few question marks - in particular: what happens to a search committee for the position? She herself serves. The head of the news department is a key position, and there is reason to be flawed in the decision of a temporary commander to appoint such a senior position in a permanent appointment.
It will be recalled that almost three months ago, Altstein was appointed acting director Shimon Alkabetz, who has ended his term.
Upon the appointment, the assessments believed that the decision was made in order to give Ganz a political break to make a decision regarding the closure of the station, and to take advantage of the window allowed by law to appoint a replacement for Shimon Alkabetz who was due to leave at the end of August.
At the same time, it is estimated that Gantz would have been able to get rid of the hated proxy through the new proxy at the station - Jacob Bardugo

However, a small detail that they forgot to mention in the Defense Minister's announcement is that Altstein's appointment to the position of commander of the IDF waves is for only 3 months. Quite a few sources estimated that Altstein had received an oral promise to serve as commander, and the definition was formulated so that she could bypass a proper director of a search committee.
As you may recall, the establishment of a locating committee - as was the case with the selection of all station commanders - is a tender procedure that allows people to bid for the position. Until now, the only ones who served as acting commander of the GLC were Gil Omer and Yitzhak Tonic, in completely different circumstances: Tonic served twice in the position. Goren: Avi Benyahu, Gil Omer and Tonik reached the final, and after more than a year and a half as deputy, the Minister of Defense chose Avi Benyahu and Tonik was forced to leave. Res. Amos Yaron. The three who reached the final were him, Eldad Koblenz and Eli Kamir.
One way or another, Altstein's appointment, a search committee as required by law, is yet to expire, and it is estimated that Ganz will extend the appointment for another three months.
Galit Altstein, declined to comment on the issue of locating or correcting the move, and responded: "I am pleased to announce Ilan's joining Glatz's management team and I am confident that his vast experience will allow him to safely lead Glatz's news department for professional and accomplished journalistic work."
Ilan Lior: "I am excited to return to Gali Tzahal, the place where I started my career in the press and have always had a home.
I will proudly lead the news department while emphasizing the values of public broadcasting. "
