Read the full report here: Iran's Press TV: Broadcasting Anti-Semitism To The English Speaking World (PDF).
Press TV, Iran's government-run English language satellite news network, has emerged as the Iranian government's primary propaganda tool to promote a wide range of pernicious anti-Semitic conspiracy theories in English to a worldwide audience.
Operated by Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), a significant amount of Press TV programing provides a platform for American anti-Semites, conspiracy theorists and Holocaust deniers, who help amplify the Iranian regime's hateful messages.
The station not only misleadingly presents these hatemongers as serious and credible "experts" or "analysts" on international economic and political issues, but also enables their bigoted perspectives to reach a significant new audience.
Launched in 2007 and based in Tehran, the station is broadcast in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and parts of Africa and Latin America via a number of satellite television providers.
In addition to promoting classic anti-Semitic myths of global Jewish domination, Press TV presents a pervasively negative perspective on Western society, emphasizing what it views as the West's imperialism, faltering economies, lack of justice, political corruption and racial and class divisions.
Its programs, interviews, and articles are available on the network's website and further distributed through social media, including on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
The content broadcast on Press TV provides insight into the mindset of the Iranian regime, which not only continues its aggression on the nuclear issue, but also maintains its belligerent position toward Israel, Jews and the West.
