Eurovision Fans Against Genocide

Martin Green is due to give a media briefing now.

These videos were sent directly to creators and influencers through the Israeli delegation. They were uploaded by Dorav Drei, who is part of Louder Creative, who describe themselves as “actively combatting skewed perspectives online”. Now, the videos are banned.

Israel's Eurovision strategy? A great song. A standout artist. Be the contestant the world can't stop talking about. Mission accomplished. Now even the New York Times is obsessed. But here's the twist: They're not writing about Noam Bettan's incredible performance. They're investigating Israel's PR strategy Countries promote their Eurovision contestants all the time. Artists post on social media. Broadcasters run campaigns. Record labels advertise. But when Israel's artist Noam Bettan releases promotional videos - the same kind other contestants use - suddenly it's international news. The New York Times investigates. Eurovision officials warn Israel. Fan sites call it rule-breaking. Meanwhile, Malta, Romania, and other countries run similar artist campaigns without scrutiny. But nuance doesn't sell headlines. So Israel gets investigated while others promote freely. So thanks, New York Times, for proving Israel's Eurovision strategy right: Be the contestant the world can't stop talking about. ✅🇮🇱
