Nayes (Yiddish: נייעס) is a 2020 Israeli television documentary series aired on Israel Channel 11 covering the Jewish ultra-Orthodox media outlets in Israel.[1]

The series focuses on the way the ultra-Orthodox media conform to rabbinic guidelines concerning modesty, as well as the entire orientation of the religious press toward news coverage. The ultra-Orthodox press includes two local area television networks, two private radio stations and one public radio station. There are also a range of news websites and dozens of magazines.[2] A criticism of the series has been an undercoverage of the issue of the limits of ultra-Orthodox women from these religious media outlets. Ultra-Orthodox women may be employed as journalists, but their roles are constrained due to gender segregation in Orthodox Jewish life.[3]
