Member of Knesset Yehuda Glick (Likud) has rejected calls on Thursday for the boycott of the Haaretz newspaper following Yossi Klein's article on Wednesday condemning Religious Zionists. Comparing Haaretz to religious papers, Glick said, "Haaretz does not hide its views. The first Makor Rishon newspaper does not hide its views, as does Yated Ne'eman and Hamodia."
"It is very important to make sure that there are many different voices in Israel, and there are excellent professional reporters at Ha'aretz, and it is really not worthwhile to include a whole newspaper because of a few irresponsible journalists and members of the fringe. Well done to the public on the right and the left, religious and secular, who saw fit to condemn the words of hatred."
