Danny Seaman is stepping down from his position as head of Israel’s Government Press Office. In a frank, wide-ranging interview with the Jerusalem Post, Seaman discussed the ups and downs of working between the press corps and the government.

He touches on issues like:

  • Israeli media bias spilling over to the Western press
  • Keeping Sderot’s suffering on the MSM’s agenda
  • Parachute journalists who didn’t understand the Gaza war
  • Mohammed al-Dura, Al-Jazeera’s birthday party for released terrorist Samir Kuntar, and more.

I’ll miss Seaman; best of luck to his replacement, Oren Helman.
