Journalism In Israel
The mass media in Israel refers to print, broadcast and online media available in the State of Israel. The country boasts dozens of newspapers, magazines, and radio stations, which play an important role by the press in political, social and cultural life and cater it to a modern, developed and literate society. There are over 10 different languages in the Israeli media, with Hebrew as the predominant one.
