Minister Zohar criticizes the media: "They blow everything out of proportion"
Minister Miki Zohar attacked the media, which he claims refrains from complimenting the government on its achievements, and called for reaching agreements with the Haredim in order to resolve the enlistment crisis.
Assessment
Minister Zohar is publicly accusing the media of inflating stories and refusing to credit the government for its achievements. This rebuke signals a widening trust gap between the coalition and the press. By tying the criticism to a call for resolving the conscription crisis with ultra Orthodox parties, Zohar is framing legislative compromise as a battle against media distortion.
