In Adler's place, Lior Weitz was appointed editor. Weitz himself resigned as editor in 2001 due to commercial involvement in the paper's content, according to him, after an article about the Focus Club, owned by the student union, was disqualified from publication. In Weitz's place, he was appointed editor of the newspaper, journalist Yuval Yoaz, who retired after a few months, during which he edited five issues. His place was taken by Ron Levinthal, who edited the newspaper until his election as a member of the Tel Aviv City Council.

In May 2000, a police complaint was filed against the newspaper's editorial board for an article titled "Know Your Enemy, or: The Limits of Pluralism," in which repentants were compared to those who joined the Nazi party. The complaint was filed by MK Meir Frosh of the United Torah Judaism faction, claiming that the article was "an article full of hatred against the entire religious public." The Attorney General decided to close the case after a public apology was published in the media and in the following issue of Teza magazine.

Thus, for example, the social protests, the university's handling of complaints of sexual harassment, the coastal struggle, the authorities' treatment of the homeless, the phenomenon of suicides among students at Tel Aviv University, were reported and covered by Teza. In 2013, the newspaper's editorial board resigned in protest of the censorship of a critical article about the alleged improper conduct of former student union chairman Boaz Toporovsky, this was after Toporovsky threatened a libel suit, and NCS chairman Gil Goldberg, Toporowski's replacement, refused to back Shoshan.
