LBCI

Crosswire lists LBCI as Center within Lebanon's media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side.

Read LBCI beside another title from Lebanon and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Broadcast newsrooms build around what can be shown and who can be booked, so LBCI's online front page tends to track its on-air running order — watch which stories carry video and which are text-only. Because LBCI is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning title from Lebanon either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.

This is an approximate orientation, not a definitive judgement — and not a rating of quality or accuracy. Read how Crosswire classifies editorial leanings, including the sources behind each label. Directory last reviewed 2026-08-31. Think this label is wrong? Suggest a correction.

LBCI is one of 6 outlets tracked in Lebanon, and one of 2 television news channels among them — the other being MTV Lebanon. By outlets tracked, Lebanon ranks first of the 20 countries on Crosswire's Middle East and North Africa hub, which lists 99 outlets in all.

Across the Middle East and North Africa, Crosswire tracks 11 of the 66 television news channels in the directory. The nearest counterparts to LBCI outside Lebanon, starting with The Levant, are Al Jazeera (Qatar), Press TV (Iran), Rudaw (Iraq) and Syria TV (Syria). Opening one of them beside LBCI is the quickest way to see what is a house style and what is a national one.
