Israeli Central Elections Committee Chair Calls for Equal Media Access to Party Events

Noam Solberg, the Chair of Israel's Central Elections Committee and Deputy President of the Supreme Court, issued a letter urging all parties competing in the 26th Knesset elections to provide equal access to all media outlets for party events open to coverage. This call follows an incident during the Democratic primaries where journalists from Channel 14 were excluded. Solberg emphasized that the right to know belongs not to journalists but to the public and voters, highlighting the importance of transparency in the electoral process.
