Foreign Press Fed Up With PM’s Office?

(Friday, July 22nd, 2011)

The Foreign Press Association in Israel sent a sharp letter to the Prime Minister’s Office Thursday, complaining of multiple humiliating incidents, which the organization claims both impedes foreign reporters’ work, as well as erodes their professional standing.

The FPA denounced what it called “the continued harassment” of foreign reporters who arrive at the PM Office’s media events, adding that unless policies change, they may stop covering the PMO altogether.

“The Foreign Press Association strongly condemns the continued harassment of journalists attending media events at the Prime Minister’s Office,” said the letter.

    These guys get what they deserve. They almost never have a good word about the pm.

    RavKahaneTzadak…er…to what is the press is objecting? Surely you must know, having presented us with such a firm and inciteful comment

    Is that a threat or a promise?

    Most of these Foreign correspondents are biased especially against THIS PM. Natanyahu is the most pr savy PM in Israel’s history and they don’t like it one bit.

    Maybe Israel would be better off if they carried out their “threat”.

  4. YonasonW says:

    This PM has no plan, no strategy and no vision…he’s neither a Begin nor a Ben Gurion

    YonasonW – Better no strategy than implementing harmful strategies.
