      Media Watch Complains of Hareidi-Phobic Bias


      Israel Media Watch has filed a complaint against a long-time Israeli radio show host for alleged Hareidi-phobic bias. Eli Pollack, chairman of Israel Media Watch said that a recent interview with Member of Knesset Meir Porush of the United Torah Judaism party was "too aggressive and bordered on racism against hareidim.” The Hareidi community is what many in Israel refer to as the religiously observant yeshiva world.
