BuzzFeed Motion Pictures, a branch of the news and media organization, has teamed up with Keshet Studios, the Los Angeles arm of Israel’s Keshet International television studio, to develop a game show based on “Touch,” Keshet’s popular Israeli game show.
In “Touch,” contestants are asked to point out incongruities in photos they see on a screen, while a clock counts down. The BuzzFeed Motion Pictures group and Keshet show will air on television while playing simultaneously online and on mobile devices.
The game is one of gut reaction, sharp eyes and quick fingers, as contestants concentrate on an image or video, identify what’s “wrong,” and touch the screen where the error appears, while time is counting down.
Called a “next generation game show” by Keshet producers, the content will be syndicated through BuzzFeed’s various distribution channels.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
