Haaretz



Haaretz is a newspaper in Tel Aviv, Israel covering local news, sports, business, jobs, and community events.

Ha'aretz is Israel's left-leaning daily newspaper, and as such tends to look more critically at Israeli policy toward the Palestinians than the other major Israeli paper that publishes in English, the right-wing Jerusalem Post. It is also a popular place for English-speaking correspondents based in Israel to keep up on the news. It has up-to-the minute news flashes on its website.

This newspaper is owned by Schocken family.

The web site is presented in the English and Hebrew languages.

High praise for Haaretz from Daniel Estrin, writing in the June 19, 2009 issue of the American newspaper Forward:

"From its founding in 1918, Haaretz has distinguished its brand by highlighting Israeli cultural, literary and artistic life with a vigor unmatched by its competitors. That, along with its dense in-depth political and business reporting (achieved with smaller type and far fewer photos than Israel’s other dailies) has won it an elite audience, albeit one far smaller than its competitors. Its weekday circulation of some 50,000 compares with 400,000 for Yediot Aharonot, Israel’s largest daily, and 160,000 for Ma’ariv, the second largest.

But as the old cliché goes, they are the right readers. “The likelihood of Haaretz readership,” Israeli media analysts Dan Caspi and Yehiel Limor write, “rises with income, education, and age.” Its elite audience gives it an influence disproportionate to its circulation, as does its internationally read English language Internet edition, which features translations of many of the Hebrew stories. Its readership, along with the paper’s dovish political stances, has won it a reputation as Israel’s version of The New York Times."
