A commentator on Israel's Channel 14 attempted to correct the anchor during a broadcast by presenting factual evidence, leading to an unexpectedly striking response from the anchor. This moment quickly gained attention on social media for its surprising nature. Meanwhile, political commentator Avishai Ben Haim criticized Prime Minister Netanyahu for allegedly favoring Ashkenazi Jews over Mizrahi Jews, blaming the prevailing hegemonic power structure for this bias. Another commentator, Dedi Simchi, was labeled a small-time racist comparable to Itamar Ben-Gvir, with a two-minute video segment cited as clear proof. Additionally, Ayala Hasson, a presenter on Kan 11, was accused of contradicting herself by dismissing polls as misleading while relying on them. The media's portrayal of ultra-Orthodox draft evaders was also noted, with Channel 14 singled out as an exception for its coverage. Viewers were invited to share what they considered the most embarrassing broadcast moment of the week.
