No one is really confirming it officially but there are plenty of rumours going around that hundreds of Israeli Haredim are canceling their "HaModia" subscription.
"HaModia" is one of the most well - known haredi newspapers. Not only its Hebrew edition but also its English as well as its French edition. "HaModia" stands for the Agudat Israel and especially for the Chassidut Gur. It is said that Gur is the most powerful force behind the "HaModia" and in particular, Yaakov Litzman, the Knesset representative of the Gerrer Rebbe. According to many critics of Gur, Yaakov Litzman is running the Chassidut and not the Gerrer Rebbe Yaakov Aryeh Alter.

However, many subscribers seem to be sick of all the intrigues the Gerrer Chassidim ran against Me'ir Porush during his election campaign. Furthermore, many Haredi claim that they don't want a "One - Man - Yaakov - Litzman - Show" anymore. And, last but not least, many subscribers just have enough of certain violent actions carried out by Gerrer Chassidim.
A further rumour says that the following chassidic groups are not in favour of the "HaModia" anymore: Kretchnif in Kiryat Gat, Orloi, Zanz, Slonim, Breslov, Lublin, Nadvorna, Machnovke, and others.
