Likud-affiliated social media groups have circulated a list ranking journalists from the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (KAN) based on their perceived stance toward the government. The list, which ranks journalists on a scale from 1 to 5, has sparked significant controversy and criticism. KAN CEO Golan Yochpaz denounced the list, calling it an erosion of free journalism and Israeli democracy. The Jerusalem Journalists' Association also criticized the publication, warning of potential personal risks to targeted journalists. These developments contribute to ongoing debates about press freedom in Israel as the government implements changes to the media landscape.
