- In the quotations, journalists' names were discussed.
Benjamin Netanyahu: We're talking about moderation, about reasonable media, lowering the hostility level towards me from 9.5 to 7.5.
Arnon Mozes: It's clear to me. I got it. We need to make sure that you'll be prime minister.
BN: I think that we need to be worried for the country.
AM: I told you that fortunately, you're the crazy guy who wants to be prime minister, so good luck, go for it.
AM: Give me a rightist; I've been telling you this for a while now.
BN: I can't invent one. Hagai Segal—Sheldon took him to be an editor at Makor Rishon.
AM: Navigating the media is a profession.
AM: Bring me someone who can write articles tomorrow morning. Come on, bring me. From tomorrow, not related to anything, before the law, before everything. I'm trying to show you good will. Bring me.
BN: Take that guy, that soccer player, Avi Ratzon
Mozes expressed his disagreement, according to Channel 2 reporter Guy Peleg.
BN: What do you care?
AM: Forget about it. I need to save you from yourself. We need someone who can write articles in the middle of the week. Give him (Ari Harow) 2-3 names, and we'll contact them, but we need to check with them that they've never publically commented on the law.
BN: Every day; what's that woman's name?
AM: Sima (Kadmon)?
BN: "Every day there's somebody who's killing me. What's his name? Abramovich. (Amnon Abramovich)
AM: We talked, and we said that if we get along, you'll need to find a way, and it's not complicated—Nahum (Barnea).
BN: What about Amnon?
AM: I don't even want to start arguing with you if he works for me. Does that one work for me? Can you tell them what to do? Come on, he wants Barak to come back. That's what he wants.
BN: Okay, Amnon will be balanced.
AM: No, no, I can take responsibility for our people. Sima and Nahum—that's your job. There's going to be an earthquake here. We have to be smart about how we do it."
AM: There will be an earthquake; it's something that needs to be done wisely.
Arnon Mozes is the publisher and owner of Yedioth Ahronoth Group, which includes Ynet.
