Latma TV is mostly in Israeli, but I've watched a few of their videos. Currently they have 156 videos with English or subtitles and 35 song videos. Latma TV in English or with subtitles youtube.com Latma TV Songs youtube.com Latma is an Israeli media criticism website that also produces a weekly satirical news show. The website was created in 2008 by a group of journalists claiming that "the only way to improve the Public discourse is exposing the true face of the news and journalism in whole". According to the site, the majority of the Israeli media, and especially the satire that is presented in them, lean to the political left. The site contains criticism about media outlets, reporters and journalists. The criticism is mostly directed towards politically biased articles. One of Latma's creations is "The Tribal Update", a mock news show, featuring anchors Ronit Shapira (née Avrahamof) and Elchanan Even-Chen. CBS News characterizes the program as a "a parody TV show — kind of like Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update." According to CBS, the anchor gravely explains, in Hebrew, that "this is the newscast that reaches conclusions long before the facts are known."[1] Glick told the Jerusalem Post that the group was founded with the intention of using comedy to critique the "egregious leftist slant of news coverage in this country."[2] According to the New York Times, Latma "is an initiative of the Center for Security Policy, a Washington think tank".[3] en.wikipedia.org * * *
