Reportedly, PM Netanyahu and Minister Deri are once again trying to shut down the new broadcasting authority (Kaan). I did not understand the fight over this the first time around and I doubt I will understand it this time. The excuse is something about wasting public monies.

It seems to me that establishing the authority at the cost of tens of millions of shekels and then canceling it within a few short months, and then obviously creating a new broadcasting entity is a bigger waste of money and it would make sense to establish some protocol for spending and appoint a comptroller to oversee proper usage of funds.

I don't get it.
