Have you watched the big shaming competition between the cities of Israel? • The chaos on TV has never seemed more stressful - Corona everywhere

  • Stressful in a paternal voice. Prof. Gabi Barbash

1 Corona here, Corona there, Corona everywhere all the time, and chaos begins to take command. At Rafi Reshef, they give alcohol to pirates from hospitals, and in News 12, rich people save themselves and buy respirators privately, because we only updated us at the beginning of the edition that "In 15 days we will have to decide who to women and who not ".

Panic in the streets, panic in the air too. The CEO of El Al was sitting in the central edition and was really begging for some help to save the national airline from collapse. The commentators discussed what the 100-meter restriction means, when will they close the mikveh, is it allowed to play tokens, and for a moment, do they consider to be sports at all? Even police representatives had trouble providing answers on how to enforce the same restrictions.

Yesterday's broadcasts on the various channels were divided as follows: Up to five we spoke to the severity of restrictions (which went into effect at 17:00 and began at 5am to talk about further aggravation of the instructions. So what the hell is going on here? Nobody understands anything, and the chaos about "The public, who is not calm anyway, is now becoming even more nervous, because two weeks to order from the writer, and Passover is around the corner," said Oded Ben-Ami. And you know what is more stressful? , And nobody has a spoiler about how and when it will end.

2 When the first pictures arrived from Jerusalem, Rafi Reshaf disappointedly shook his head, saying "It's awful" with such despair of a Polish mother. Indeed, at five o'clock the great shaming competition between the cities of Israel began, and the capital's streets looked bustling and busy. Haredi groups gathered behind Yair Sharkey, who admitted that "there are more people here yesterday" and sought explanations. "This is how pandemics spread because the virus does not distinguish between sectors," Yoav Ibn immediately shouted.

And really, the virus does not notice, but the Israeli media certainly distinguishes between sectors and makes sure to tag them even at such a time. Every day a different sector is kidnapped. The students at the parties, the Arabs at the castle, the Tel Aviv park, the knit in the synagogues, and for the last two days it is the ultra-Orthodox public that accepts the shaming.

"The streets are a bit problematic," Ben-Ami called Mea Shearim, when he referred to a report by the brave Sharks in Jerusalem, who was sent to the Corona battlefield in the heart of a redemption neighborhood without protective gloves, without a mask or other safeguards. "And what grade do you give, Tamir Steinman, to the residents of Beer Sheva?" Ben-Ami was interested in the next item.

"We can pat ourselves on the back, thanks to our filming for the last two days, the police have started enforcement," Moshe Nussbaum announced. And it really does sometimes feel that all this is mainly intended to put pressure on the factors that are supposed to manage this crisis. Is the daily public shaming, which only adds to the strengthening of polarization in society, really effective and influential?

3 Every crisis needs a super hero to save the situation, and the Corona hero is Prof. Gabi Barbash who moved to a news studio, 12 and every day is looking for other hideous ways to convince Israelis to stay home. Although he will always bring a stressful apocalyptic script, something about his authoritative, paternal, soothing tone of voice makes him the voice of logic of the era.

"We are on the edge. This is our last chance," he said last night in his soft voice. And when you're home and want to relax, do good - don't turn on a TV. The Israeli channels really won't help you relax.
