(IsraelNN.com) Residents of neighborhoods in the Tel Aviv area and in Karnei Shomon, east of Kfar Saba, have initiated a boycott against Yediot Aharonot and Maariv, Israel's two most popular dailies. They charged the newspapers with biased reporting in support of the government evacuation program and with incitement against its opponents.
The campaign, called "Don't feed the dog that bites you," calls on people not to buy the profitable Friday editions of the newspapers as well as boycotting the daily editions. Organizers said that if only one quarter of those displaying orange on their cars will stop buying the dailies, the economic effect will cause the editors to report the news more fairly and accurately."
