it also often is the first to break silence on touchy defense and idf issues.

Army Radio isn't in any way a propaganda machine, though - it broadcasts to the general public, hosts a variety of opinions and people, plays music by some draft-dodging artists - etc. It provides a source of entertainment, with the soldiers in mind, nothing else. are you not confusing army radio with it's musical sibling station?
