From what I understand this newspaper - Haaretz is considered to be the most respected one in Israel.

And more feedback from all over the world

So you don't know ANYTHING about Israeli politics, eh?

Haaretz is respected like The Sun is respected. It's a tool of the far left. I only consult it for it's excellent sports coverage.

Haaretz: Pacifist-socialist left wing.

Jerusalem Post: Center-right, pro-Sharon  and disengagement and pro-Bush foreign policy. (Interestingly, this was a lefty paper for decades until a friend remarked to Conrad Black, wouldn't it just be hysterical if he bought it out and turned it into the most Likud friendly paper in Israel? They shared a jolly goos laugh over this. One week later...)

Channel 7, Israel National News: Very right wing; nationalist-religious. Strongly pro-settlement.

Yediot Achronot, Maariv: Lean maybe a bit left, but focus less on news and more on arts, sports, taste, and so forth. Published only in Hebrew. Maariv is for pay only.

Debkafile[/i]: Shockingly accurate analysis of shady politics, terror and war across the Middle East. Over and over again, lives up to its motto- "we start where the media stops".
