An Inside Look at Israeli Media - Leadel LIVE Panel

As Israel continues to be shone in a negative light via international media; Leadel and partners saught to bring some ‘new light’ to this ongoing problem.

On May 20, 2010 a carefully selected group of top media professionals in Israel, discussed Israeli media in front of live audiences, both on site and on the Web. Prior to the event, Arad Nir, Head of the foreign news desk and international commentator at Channel 2 News commented, “(I’m) Looking forward to share professional insight about the way the Israeli media operates, particularly during time of military crisis.” In addition to Nir on the panel were David Horovitz, Editor-in-Cheif of The Jerusalem Post and Marcus Sheff, Executive Director of the Israel Office for The Israel Project.

This Panel is in six parts:
Part 1 ; Part 2 ; Part 3 ; Part 4 ; Part 5 ; Part 6
