Berkovich dismantled Channel 14 on air: "You are the Mickey Mouse of the media" | Listen

Eyal Berkovich and Erel Segal opened their program on 103fm radio this morning (Monday) by addressing the major blunder of the Channel 14 news desk, which misidentified the former Military Advocate General, Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi. Afterward, the two moved to a stormy discussion about those responsible for the October 7 failure.

Eyal Berkovich could not help himself and opened the morning with Channel 14's mistake in identifying the former Military Advocate General: "What an embarrassment, what a pathetic channel Channel 14 is." Erel Segal replied: "There was a blunder, we are not a pathetic channel."

Berkovich burst into loud laughter: "I see your viewership numbers. You are a small channel. Listen to how amateurish you are, you are a joke. You are the Mickey Mouse of the Israeli media. You don't even know what the Military Advocate General looks like, the main thing is you do reports on her, your editor should resign. Such a blunder has not happened in history. And you even uploaded it to the site after the news. You have nothing to say - you are finished. What amateurism, this is an amateur league from England. Leave it, don't respond, why? I'm telling you for real... What will be the end with you? Do you know what Eretz Nehederet will do to you with this? I already see Kitzis walking there with a dog in the park."

Erel Segal addressed the issue seriously: "Can I answer? It is truly serious to slander someone on the street that she is the Military Advocate General, but it is more serious to slander IDF soldiers that they raped a terrorist. Maybe if Channel 12 hadn't pixelated them... What is amazing is that at our place they didn't identify the Military Advocate General, but at Channel 12 they didn't identify two films that they connected. My channel made a mistake, a blunder, but at least we didn't concoct a blood libel against IDF soldiers. Remember who makes which mistake, such blunders have happened in life. I interviewed Trump."

Afterward, Berkovich asked to dedicate a special song to illustrate the situation and noted: "Listen, I'm telling you the truth. Your CEO must conduct an internal audit." Segal protested: "Tell me what is worse? Our mistake or the cooked-up video of Force 100 of your friend. Your friend didn't take responsibility. I knew you would come... really, a blunder."

Berkovich added: "Blunder two. There is a fight inside the armored personnel carrier. Shufri and the horror movie Tali Gotliv are fighting. Every time he is on vacation, he throws bombs. When I am on vacation, you won't hear from me. I disappear. The phone, I put it in the safe. Only when I arrive at the hotel in the evening do I look. Vacation is sacred. What bothers us in life is the phone. When you go on vacation, put the phone aside, look at the phone for half an hour in the evening. So there is a mess between Shufri and the horror movie on Netflix Tali Gotliv. For her, everything is horror, fear, and shouting."

Segal argued: "With us, there is a real debate, we don't lick each other and protect each other. The truth, appreciate it. These are people who come and are willing to go and be public representatives, elected officials." Berkovich responded: "No thanks. I don't need such. Half of them are accused of criminal offenses." Segal attacked: "The only one accused of criminal offenses is Bitan. Why does everyone suddenly love Bitan? Amichai Chikli is a criminal? Erez Tadmor is a criminal?"

Later, Berkovich asked to contact Shufri (Yinon Magal) who is abroad to clarify with him the matter around Tali Gotliv: "Shufri, to his credit, knows how to do excellent media, but he lost his way." Segal quipped: "You never found the way."

Also, the two were caught in a discussion about the October 7 failure and talked about the responsibility of senior officials. Berkovich wondered: "How after October 7, when we are in the Likud primaries, are there the same people?" Segal answered: "And what about Gadi Eisenkot?" Berkovich raged: "Hey, you are a sick person, a psychopath, you are not normal. Go for an evaluation, seriously."

Segal explained: "Why is Gadi Eisenkot running for elections? He was Chief of Staff. Your ignorance is insulting. He has responsibility, he has a connection to this. Whoever was Chief of Staff and built the army, Gadi Eisenkot was a big failure, he persecuted Elor Azaria and wanted to surrender to Hamas." Berkovich asked again: "How are the same people who were in the failure of October 7 going to be elected in the primaries? Where is the conscience of the people, the person failed?"

Segal responded: "Where is Bennett's conscience? Where is Eisenkot's conscience?" shouted Segal. "Where is your conscience when you threatened to refuse an order? Where is the conscience of the pilots on October 7? Where is the conscience of Ronen Bar? I want to put him on trial, criminal negligence, I don't want a commission of inquiry, I want a criminal trial. Ronen Bar acted with criminal negligence. I know things."

Berkovich got angry: "You know lies, that's what you know. What scoundrels you are. Everyone went home except the Likud. The Likud is still the same people. Should Bibi stand trial for October 7?" Segal replied: "Should be investigated, certainly, not stand trial - he is not guilty of criminal negligence."
