Public and commercial television in Israel operates mainly in Hebrew, while Arabic-language broadcasting and multilingual international news add other layers to the media environment. Public broadcasting includes Kan 11 and the educational service Kan Educational, while commercial channels provide general programming, news, discussion, drama, and entertainment. Arabic-language television is represented by both public and commercial services, and i24NEWS extends the picture through news coverage in Hebrew, Arabic, English, and French.
The broadcaster profiles distinguish among public, commercial, educational, Arabic-language, and international news services by examining where they are based, the audiences they address, and the subjects their programming emphasizes. Comparing these roles across Jerusalem, Tel Aviv-Yafo, and other locations helps show how language, institutional structure, and programming purpose shape Israel’s television environment.
