Channel 14 announced Tuesday that journalist and host Boaz Golan will join the network's main evening broadcast as a political commentator. Golan, a founding member of the news site 0404 and a veteran anchor, will become part of the commentary team.
This appointment is part of an effort to strengthen the political desk in anticipation of the 2026 elections. In his new role, Golan is expected to regularly cover political developments and the election campaign.
