Haaretz ("The Land," in Hebrew)
HAARETZ ("the Land," in Hebrew)
Independent Israeli daily, left-leaning, founded in 1919. Considered the oldest of the Israeli dailies, the influential Haaretz has belonged to the Schocken family since 1939. Its views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict tend to represent the political agenda of the Meretz Party. As of 2003, the newspaper, under publisher Amos Schocken, was selling 50,000 copies per weekday. Though the daily is not a leader among Israeli media, its English-language Web site attracts large numbers of Jews outside of Israel, particularly in America.
