"Those who want to destroy the corporation do not want to know the reality around us" - voila! Barangay

Support Conference of the Journalists' Organization at the Broadcasting Corporation (Journalists' Organization)

How do you argue with someone who thinks that public broadcasting budgets can be taken and dispersed to "lower barriers"?

How do you explain that as soon as you dismantled a broadcast body like that, its contents simply evaporate?

That it is not about popcorn machines for distribution throughout the country

There are things that can be debated.

The overcoming clause, for example.

In my opinion, it is a problem to turn the High Court's ruling into a recommendation - certainly when it comes to human rights, certainly with an automatic majority of 61. But you can argue. 64, 80. Everyone will throw out a number. There are things that should be beyond debate. At least that's what we thought for many years.

We thought A country has been established here that is founded on the foundations of freedom, justice and peace. It seeks freedom. It is democracy in the deep and happy sense of the word. There are things that we thought were beyond any debate

. public and distribute them in order to "lower barriers"? How do you explain that once you have dismantled a broadcasting body in this way, its contents simply evaporate? That it is not about popcorn machines to be distributed throughout the country; it is about contents created by people, and thought, and creative spirit and ethos.

This is how Iron Sheep properties such as "Rehearsals" and "The Commander", and "Tehran" and "Sorry for the Question" and "Exceptions" and "On the Other Side" and "Cultural Agent" and "Zero Hour" and "Shishu and Hail" are born .

and "manaik".

You can privatize, of course you can.

But to privatize public broadcasting is to kill public broadcasting.

And to kill public broadcasting is to eliminate one of the important engines of our public discourse.

Without offending those of us, it doesn't matter what their name is, who work on the commercial channels: we also know that there are things for which public broadcasting exists.

And the miracle and his name the corporation, finally, after many bad years, fulfills this mission.

"To privatize public broadcasting is to kill it and eliminate public discourse."

No one here is here to help

So I don't know how one can begin to argue with the perverse idea of ​​closing the place where good and vibrant work has been bubbling up in recent years.

Includes documentary series about Hasidism and Eli Cohen, and Savvi, and Mebarot, and Yimi Begin, and the trial of the bankers and Eichmann, and the secret of the murder of the Shuvo Benim community.

I don't know how to explain that yes, it is possible to produce a "main box" with financing from manufacturers of washing powder and instant coffee, but it won't be a "main box".

And unlike Iris in "Rehearsals", someone here does not come to help, and rather has an interest.

So I don't know how you can argue with the subjects of the shut-down line, but I know that this show of solidarity, today, is the best answer we can give.

For our friends, my friends: for Aryeh Golan and Carmela and Michael Shemesh and Roi Sharon, for Kalman and Asaf, and Keren and Moab and Gili and Suleiman, for Binyamin and Guetta and Ze'ev Kam, and Eran and Gal and Akiva Novik too.

Good and honest journalists and broadcasters, who come from all kinds of habitats and worldviews, but they all do - even in the terrible attack yesterday - the one thing we are all obligated to: tell us about the reality around us.

Those who want to destroy the place where they broadcast may not want to know this reality.

Maybe he doesn't need to know her.

It's hard to argue with someone like that.

But you can tell him that we are all here.
