Background

The Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA) provides news programming in 14 foreign languages directed at audiences abroad or in Israel. The goal of these programs is to present a balanced and impartial picture of what happens in Israel in particular and in the region in general. Each language has its own schedule of programs focusing on news, political, social, educational, economic, technological and cultural issues ^[1].

Video programming

The IBA provides two video programs with news and views from Israel. The daily IBA News broadcast and the weekly news talk show program IBA Closeup are available on-demand via the IBA World website [2]. IBA Close-Up is broadcast every Wednesday immediately after the news broadcast. Anchors include Yochanan Elrom, Leah Zinder, Laura Cornfield, Erin Viner, Jonathan Elkins, Leah Stern and Viva Press. The Chief Editor of IBA News is Steve Leibowitz. IBA News is broadcast on Israel Channel One at 4:50 PM Sunday - Thursday, and Channel 33 Sunday - Thursday at 5:00 PM. Friday and Saturday broadcasts are at 6:00 PM on Channel 33 only.

The IBA News program is rebroadcast on certain Christian broadcasting channels including METV [3] on the internet (Middle East Television). In the USA the IBA News English language program airs on the satellite channel WHT (Directv channel 367) at 6:00 PM (Eastern time.)

Audio programming

The IBA provides daily audio programming with news and views from Israel. The programs may be listened to on the internet live and on-demand via Kol Israel International[4], IBA World[5], and Israel Radio International[6]. On-demand audio becomes available about 20 minutes after the end of a live broadcast^[2]. IBA audio programming is available in the following languages:

English, French, Russian, Mugrabia, Georgian, Amharic, Bucharian, Persian, Romanian, Ladino, Spanish, Yiddish, Tigritian, Hungarian

There are multiple daily programs in certain languages including three programs in English and two in Persian which, along with the French program, are also available via World Radio International (WRN)[7]. WRN maintains a daily archive of several months of English, French and Persian programs which may be listened to on-demand.
