Once again, Jerusalem's Sikarikim made headlines in the haredi press. The secular press seem to have overlooked the incident happening a few days ago.
Some Neturei Karta Sikarikim entered a post office near the haredi Ge'ulah neighbourhood and demanded from the manager to turn off the advertising screens because the commercials (e.g. women appearing) shown there wouldn't be too modest. The manager refused and the Sikarikim made a fuss.
Before they even entered the post office, they had pushed the guard aside and he had called the police. Result: The Sikarikim were thrown out of the post office.
So far, no other Haredi have complained about the commercials on the screens.
To be fair to the secular press, Ynet did publish the story on July 18, 2010:
