Meeting the Man Behind Netanyahu's Public Perception
Briefly

In 2019, a billboard went up in Tel Aviv depicting four journalists, saying, 'THEY WON'T DECIDE. YOU DECIDE.' This was a campaign for Likud, Netanyahu's party, targeting key media figures.
Netanyahu perceives the Israeli media as antagonistic, prompting a counter-operation to protect his interests, referred to as the 'poison machine,' aimed at discrediting critics within the media.
Despite conflicts and deep divisions within the country, Netanyahu's government remains stable, raising questions from critics about the absence of a viable opposition in the Israeli political landscape.
Amid ongoing turmoil and war in Gaza, the effectiveness of orchestrated pro-Netanyahu media strategies and the lack of opposition is perplexing for many observers of Israeli politics.
