Israel Broadcasting Authority (often referred to as ''the IBA''; (ヘブライ語:רָשׁוּת השׁידוּר), ''Rashùt Ha-Shidúr'' literally: ''The Broadcast Authority'') is Israel's state broadcasting network. It grew out of the radio station ''Kol Yisrael'' (''Voice of Israel'', not to be confused with the private internet radio station of this same name which operated between 2014-2015), which made its first broadcast as an independent station on . The name of the organisation operating ''Kol Yisrael'' was changed to ''Israel Broadcasting Service'' in 1951. The law creating the ''Israel Broadcasting Authority'' was passed by the Knesset on 6 June 1965. Television broadcasts commenced on 2 May 1968, with colour television following on 23 February 1983, although occasional colour transmissions were made earlier, such as the Eurovision Song Contest 1979 and the visit of the Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in 1977. The IBA will be replaced by the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation in March 2016. ==Overview== It operates four television channels and several radio stations. IBA's television stations are officially free of advertising, but programs are often "sponsored" by commercial entities. Full advertising on the radio is allowed, however. In 1990, the Israeli parliament passed a law which resulted in the creation of the Second Israeli Broadcasting Authority, whose function was to enable and regulate commercial television and private radio broadcasts in Israel. Until the establishment of the Second Broadcasting Authority and the widespread availability of cable television services in Israel (which also produce their own cable programming directed at the local market) in the early 1990s, the IBA maintained a virtual monopoly on television and radio broadcasting and production in Israel. There were a few exceptions, such as the morning and afternoon broadcasts delivered through IBA's television channel, which were produced by Israel Educational Television, the popular Israel Defense Forces Radio service, and a private radio station (''the Voice of Peace'') which operated offshore, outside Israeli territorial waters. Israel Broadcasting Authority domestic programming and broadcasts are funded by levying television licence fees upon the owners of television sets. The licence fee is the primary source of revenue for the Israel Broadcasting Authority, the state broadcaster; however, its radio stations carry full advertising and its TV programmes sometime receive "sponsorship" from commercial entities to supplement this income. All broadcasting is covered by the code of ethics set out in the Nakdi Report. The IBA (IBS at the time) was admitted as a full active member of the European Broadcasting Union in 1957. The decision made by the EBU General Assembly had the immediate effect that two founding broadcasters (the Egyptian and Syrian broadcasting services) quit as active members.〔p. 26, EBU Diffusion Special, May 1997〕 The IBA provides news programming in 14 foreign languages directed at audiences abroad or in Israel through its IBA News programming available on the internet and through rebroadcasters. In 2014, the Israeli cabinet approved reforms that will see the IBA closed and a new public broadcasting body take its place. The replacement network will create three separate television channels: a Hebrew, Arabic, and children's channel. As part of the reforms, the television tax levied on all Israelis who own a television to support the IBA has been abolished by March 2015 . Eventually the reform did not advance as originally planned and the target date has been extended to 2016). Eight new national radio stations will be created in place of the existing Kol Israel radio network.〔(Government votes to cancel TV tax by March 2015 )〕〔(Israel’s TV tax to end in 2015 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Israel Broadcasting Authority」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
