Opposition leader Yair Lapid addressed journalists at the start of the Yesh Atid faction meeting, saying: "Let's be clear, you are annoying. There isn't a politician in the world who is happy with you, including me. That's how it should be. That's your job. Precisely because of this, Netanyahu and Karhi want to make sure you won't be here." Lapid said that what's on the Communications Committee table is not a reform but "a campaign of incitement and silencing against the free press."
