"The question is very simple. In the current situation, is it permissible to broadcast dozens and hundreds of public appearances by Davidian that include many lies, including false smears against other rescuers of October 7, but impossible to broadcast 50 minutes that have investigated down to the last centimeter for truth?"

"Isn't it appropriate to investigate the story for which Davidian was honored to carry a torch?" he continued, referring to the annual Independence Day torch-lighting ceremony. "Are some journalists who have come out against this broadcast really interested in Davidian's wellbeing, or did they fear they would run into questions about how they provided a platform for these lies, some of which can be disproved without much effort?"
