Israel - Channel 10: Charedim Are Not Human
Following a discussion on Haredi-religious opposition to the building of a hospital ward on ancient graves, Channel 10 news anchor Yakov Alon introduced the next story by saying "and from Haredim we will now move on to human beings" (mi haredim naavor le ananashim).
MK Michael Ben-Ari slammed Alon for the racist remarks saying the comments revealed moral bankruptcy and said that Channel 10 broadcasts promote hatred in Israeli society.
