Athens News

Description

The Athens News, Greece's only English-language daily newspaper, was founded in 1952 by Yannis Horn and is published every morning except Mondays. In 1993, the Athens News was acquired by the Lambrakis Foundation, a non-profit research centre specialising in education which thoroughly redesigned and revamped it. Its new layout even won a national design award the first year!

Now, the Athens News has regular sections covering every aspect of Greek news -be it politics, social issues, business, arts & entertainment and sports- as well as international news. Weekly features include analysis of domestic and foreign affairs by leading academics and experts, humour columns and reader contributions. Domestic news is covered by a staff of over 20 full-time journalists and regular contributors. The paper also benefits from its collaboration with the leading Greek daily Ta Nea and respected weekly To Vima. Foreign news sources include Reuters, the Associated Press, the New York Times Service and the Washington Post-Los Angeles Times Service.

In February 1995, the Athens News was chosen to represent Greece at the G7 Information Superhighway Conference in Brussels at a demonstration of new interactive communication technologies, making it the first Greek newspaper to appear on the Internet.
