Ya'akov Eilon height - How tall is Ya'akov Eilon?

Since 16 January 2019, the day Reshet-Channel 10 merger took effect, Eilon is the main presenter of the 5 pm IST edition of HaHadashot 13 (renamed from Hadashot Eser on that day). He presented a one-time special bulletin broadcast at midnight 15-16 January 2019, which was preceded by a pre-merger special.

In 2017, he became an anchor and editor at Walla! News.

In January 2015, he returned to TV as a host of the prime time news program Mabat on the IBA's Channel 1 and remained on this program for almost two years.

In February 2012, Eilon sent his resignation to Channel 10 CEO Uri Rozen via email. Eilon and Haimovich weathered the economic storms that have frequently rocked Channel 10, but Eilon – among other highly paid staff members – did not get his January salary on time and was subsequently informed that the channel's management would be instituting a 15-percent pay cut among employees in the higher wage bracket. It is believed he quit because Channel 10 recently had to start broadcasting the main edition out of Jerusalem, whilst the rest of the producers, editors and reporters remained in the Tel Aviv studio. He claimed: "Even if the viewers do not fully understand that the studio picture is being projected behind me electronically, they notice, for example, that there are no more interviews in the new studio, and that we recently experienced a series of technical failures." He presented his last broadcast on Channel 10 at 29 April 2012.

On 4 November 1993, Eilon anchored Channel 2's first news broadcast. In 1995, he was among the people who covered the release of the Kempler video in the aftermath of the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin. He frequently presented the news together with Miki Haimovich until he left Channel 2 in 2000 and moved to Channel 10 in 2002. He was reunited with Haimovich a year later, when she joined Channel 10.

Ya'akov Eilon (Hebrew: יעקב אילון ‎, born 3 May 1961), a.k.a. Jacob Eilon, is an Israeli television presenter and journalist. Alongside Miki Haimovich, he was the anchor of Channel 2's HaHadashot 2 and Channel 10's Hadashot 10 news bulletins. Since 2019, Eilon presents the 5 pm IST edition of HaHadashot 13 on Reshet 13.
