RIGHT BIAS
These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports, and omit information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.
- Overall, we rate TV7 Israel as Right Biased based on consistent promotion of pro-Israel perspectives, frequent reliance on Israeli military and government sources, and a faith-driven Zionist editorial mission. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to one-sided framing of conflicts, limited inclusion of opposing viewpoints, and a blending of religious advocacy with news reporting.

Analysis / Bias
TV7 Israel is both a news and a Christian broadcast ministry. Its programming (such as Jerusalem Studio) often features retired Israeli generals, intelligence officials, and diplomats, centering on security threats and geopolitics. This focus aligns closely with mainstream Israeli government narratives and frames conflicts through a Zionist and Christian perspective.
For example, its coverage of Hamas strikes described the group as a “headless chicken” while highlighting Israeli Air Force coordination with U.S. officials. Another report on victims of the 2001 Sbarro bombing emphasizes Palestinian terrorism and the PA’s “Pay to Slay” program without presenting counter-narratives.
While the outlet is transparent about its religious mission and openly advocates prayer for Israel, this blending of faith and news leads to one-sided framing. Editorial tone consistently supports Israel’s security apparatus, overlapping with right-wing Zionist positions.
