The tale of the tape that puts the lie to the Israeli PM's media narrative. Plus, the Zimbabwean journalists' dilemma.
On The Listening Post this week: Netanyahu's media scandal - the story of the tape that caused "explosions" across Israel. Plus, the dilemma Zimbabwean journalists face when covering Mugabe.
Netanyahu's media games exposed
Leaked audio tapes have allegedly revealed how Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tried to negotiate a deal with Arnon Mozes, the owner of the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, and the man Netanyahu has repeatedly called his media nemesis. The extra twist in the tale is that Netanyahu was seemingly willing to sell out Israel Hayom - the newspaper that's been most favourable towards him.
