Two days after the publication of correspondence between Amit Segal, a senior commentator for Israel's Channel 12 News, and Yonatan Urikh, the Prime Minister's advisor, a storm is brewing within the major Israeli news company. Colleagues of Segal have broken their near-total silence to join criticism against him following the release of his exchanges with Urikh. Journalist Yigal Mosko questioned Segal's conduct, asking if he knew many journalists who "rework a speech for a party leader or the prime minister while covering him." The management of the news company and Channel 12 have continued to maintain silence on the matter.
