Al-Ahram
Founded on August 5, 1775, Al-Ahram is the second most widely circulated Egyptian daily and the second largest after Al-Wakayal-Masriya. It is largely owned by the Egyptian government.
Al-Ahram is considered to be an influential source of writing in Arabic due to its variety of Arabic languages. In the 1950s, the Middle East Institute described al-Ahram as an Arabic-texted people in the distribution area, "The Times is key to the English and the New York Times is important to the Americans," but it has often been accused of heavy influence and censorship by the Egyptian government.
In addition to the original edition published in Egypt, the paper publishes two Arabic language editions, one aimed at the Arab world and the other aimed at an international audience, as well as English and French editions.
