The YES satellite cable network denied reports it would consider cutting off CNN and BBC broadcasts, media reports say.

YES directors said their job is not to be a national censor, Israel Radio reports.

The reports came as Communications Minister Reuvlin Rivlin was to meet today with CNN's chief news executive to discuss allegations that the network engages in one-sided coverage of events in the country and tends to be biased against Israel.
