ILTV is an Israeli news-based television channel that produces and broadcasts daily news and other content from Israel in English for a global audience.[1] Established in 2015, it is based in central Israel and provides comprehensive coverage of Israeli news and events catering to a diverse audience including Jewish communities around the world, Christian supporters of Israel, and English speakers residing in Israel.
ILTV was founded in 2015 by media entrepreneur Ronen Lefler in partnership with J Media Global (JMG).[2] Initially, it broadcast on Israeli cable TV outlets.[3]
From 2017 to 2020, ILTV operated from Walla! studios.[4] In 2019, a group of American investors, led by the Miami-based Falik family, acquired the company and appointed Jacob Berg as the local representative to head the project.
In 2020, ILTV partnered with Ynet to broadcast from their facilities and began streaming content on Ynet's English website.[5] At the end of 2021, ILTV launched the ILTV+ streaming application, offering content to paid subscribers.[6] [7]
According to Tom Zadok, ILTV's CEO, "the future of journalism lies in video, and ILTV is poised to become the premier English news station out of Israel. Israel is often misrepresented by the international media. ILTV offers a unique platform where viewers can access a succinct, daily news program that delivers the most important headlines accurately and clearly."[8]
ILTV News is Israel's premier daily English-language news program, reaching millions through 11 TV channels across North America. It is also prominently featured on Ynet's English website and garners over 150,000 daily views on its YouTube channel. Situated in the state-of-the-art Ynet studio in central Israel, ILTV provides comprehensive coverage, including a daily news program and a variety of other shows, offering an accurate and insightful perspective on events in Israel.[9] Their slogan is "Everything Israel".[10]
