Journalist Guy Peleg sharply criticized Channel 14's management on his Radio 103FM program for its decision not to broadcast live the families' ceremony commemorating the October 7th events. Peleg also directed criticism at "The Patriots" host Yinon Magal regarding his remarks against the co-authors of the book "Mr. Abandonment." Peleg asserted that Channel 14's decision was not made by a junior editor but was a well-considered choice following in-depth discussion. He argued that the station's stance implies a division between "our" victims and "their" victims, and "our" hostages and "their" hostages, thus misusing the concept of unity. Regarding Magal's statements, Peleg claimed they were not slip-ups but representative of "Bibiism," suggesting a strategy of selling internal animosity and hatred. Tal Meir also commented on the controversy, stating that Channel 14's approach suggests a narrative of separate disasters and victims, undermining national unity.
