Asaf Rappaport, the new owner of Channel 13, is reportedly attempting to recruit prominent talent from rival Channel 12 and its news division. According to a report in TheMarker newspaper, Rappaport recently met with Amit Segal, the political commentator for Channel 12's news program, to discuss a potential move to Channel 13.
Despite the overtures, industry speculation suggests Segal is unlikely to accept the offer and will remain in his current role as Channel 12's leading commentator. This approach to Segal is part of a broader strategy by the new ownership of Channel 13 to reshape the network and bolster its news division in its competition for ratings against other channels.
