  • Media Frames 5.Indb
    תקצירים באנגלית 169 Communication without journalists? David Witzthum* Abstract The essay looks apprehensively to the future of Journalism as a profession. With a modicum of nostalgia, the author, a veteran of Israel’s public television news department, recalls its founding years. Then, most positions as in the printed press and radio were occupied by journalists: film and video editors; broadcasters and reporters; even directors and chairpersons. Today, most of these, and many other (newly created by the necessities of new media), positions within and around are performed by non-journalists: technicians, specialists, actors, "talents" and "celebrities", PR people, agents, and young "researchers" – and with them, the new face of television values has shifted. Traditional "objectivity, fairness, Professionalism, neutrality" pave way to "immediacy, interactivity, involvement" and the (sometimes uneasy and critical) public role as "state media" is replaced by the (as uneasy but hardly critical) proximity to commercial interests of the privatized "media industry". In the new hyper world of "civic journalism", blogs, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and iPhone, we could well be witnessing the last generation of professional journalists. The next era of media stories, or "contents", might have other story-tellers as well: be they Moslem Imams or reality-show stars. * David Witzthum ([email protected]) is a veteran journalist at Channel 1, the Israel Broadcasting Authority. He also teaches at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and at Tel Aviv University. 170 תקצירים באנגלית The black robe and the yellow press: Perceptions of the media by Israeli judges Anat Peleg and Bryna Bogoch* Abstract This article examines changes in judges' perceptions of the media and attitudes regarding the relationship between the media and the courts in light of changes in media coverage of legal affairs and the expansion of the activities of the Courts' Administration spokesperson department.

  • THE STATE of ISRAEL 70 YEARS of INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation
    1 The Zionist General Council Session XXXVII/4 THE STATE OF ISRAEL 70 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation October 2018 2 Plenary No. 1 - Opening of the Zionist General Council Session Eli Cohen opened the first session and thanked the members of the audit committee and praised the auditor and his team, who - in their attempt to reach a level of satisfaction, which all can find to be acceptable - see all the flaws and improvements. Rabbi Yehiel Wasserman was invited to the stage for a ceremony conferring honorary fellowships to various members for their activities in the Zionist movement and their significant contribution to shaping its path and activities. This year, thanks to the WZO’s extensive activity over the past decade, quite a few people will be receiving this status. Honorary fellows are highly motivated individuals who have devoted many years of their time to the Zionist movement and who are role models for the next generation. Rabbi Wasserman then thanked the members of the Committee for Honorary Fellows: Barbara Goldstein, Silvio Joskowicz, Dalia Levy, Karma Cohen, Hernan Felman, Jacques Kupfer and Nava Avissar, the committee’s coordinator, for their dedicated work. Honorary Fellows: Mrs. Ana Marlene Starec – Mrs. Starec has been active in the Zionist movement for the past 54 years. She has been serving as Honorary President of WIZO for many years now and is also engaged in advocacy activities for Israel in the Diaspora in general, and with the Jewish communities of Brazil, in particular. Her human rights activities earned her a medal from the state of Rio de Janeiro, and she has also received a medal from the French Senate for her activities for humanity.
