Israeli Columnists Debate Societal Issues and Media Critiques

Ongoing story · 8 updates
Translated & summarized from Haaretz by baba
The story · English

A collection of opinion pieces from Israeli writers tackles diverse societal and media-related topics. One writer reflects on personal struggles with losing control when dealing with her son, contrasting it with her past as a child actress and questioning the impact of technology on children's thinking. Another piece, in collaboration with Pras Coffee, features an interview with Noam Chorev, who aims to expose societal flaws and discusses a "selfie of an entire nation."

Further commentary includes criticism of "Naz" (likely referring to a media entity or figure) by Raviv Drucker, with Yoval Avraham highlighting its "blindness." Yasmin Levi and Rogel Alpher discuss the Israeli public's tendency to "close their ears," particularly concerning the opposition, with Alpher offering a television critique. A separate piece by Niv Hadas recommends a series that, after being initially overlooked by Amazon, found a new home on Netflix.

Finally, an article by Naama Riva raises concerns about future regret regarding the current construction of high-rise buildings, questioning whether Israelis will look back with remorse in 20 years.
