A dispute has emerged between Israel's Channel 13 (Reshet 13) and Channel 12 (Keshet 12) regarding the start date for Itay Dankner, who was appointed CEO of Channel 13 News Company. According to Channel 13 management, Dankner is set to assume his role next week, specifically on November 4.

However, Channel 12 is asserting that Dankner is bound by a four-month non-compete clause from his previous contract. "Keshet insists on the fulfillment of the agreement he signed," stated representatives from Channel 12, indicating a potential delay in Dankner's transition to his new position.
