Attorney-General pushes court to freeze entire Broadcasting Law to rule on petitions challenging it

Assessment

The Attorney-General is asking the High Court to halt the Broadcasting Law before it takes effect, not just parts of it. This signals she believes the law may be fundamentally flawed, not just in isolated provisions. The court now decides whether to pause legislation passed by the Knesset, a move that would test judicial authority over parliamentary process. Watch for the court's response and whether the government challenges this request.
