Athens News
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Athens News is a newspaper founded by Yannis Horn in 1952. In 1993, the Athens News was redesigned and revamped when it was acquired by the Lambrakis Foundation, a non-profit research centre specialising in education. [1] and owned by the media giant Lambrakis Media Organisation [1]
Having been the first Greek newspaper to be published on the internet in the 1990s, in 2001 after 49 years as a daily, the Athens News was published as a weekly newspaper every Friday. Their website content is updated weekly on Thursdays.
The Athens News has regular sections covering aspects of Greek news -be it politics, social issues, business, arts & entertainment and sports- as well as international news. Features include analysis of domestic and foreign affairs by leading academics and experts, humor columns and reader contributions. Foreign news sources include Reuters, the Associated Press, the New York Times Service and the Washington Post-Los Angeles Times Service.
The Athens News has been described as a refreshing view through the eyes of a smitten outsider accidentally but deeply entangled.[2]
The paper is printed entirely in the English language.
