Kabul Weekly
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kabul Weekly is currently the most widely distributed newspaper in Afghanistan, both in the center and the provinces.
It was first started in 1991, but was closed after it published an article accusing the Mujahideen government in 1994. The newspaper restarted its circulation immediately after the fall of the Taliban and since has been the main newspaper read by the population of Afghanistan. The Kabul Weekly is published once a week on Wednesday in English, Dari (Persian) and Pashto. It has a circulation of 10,000. It is one of only newspaper in Afghanistan that carries considerable English language material (another is Daily Outlook Afghanistan) and so it enjoys readership made up both of locals and foreigners.
Kabul is an independent newspaper that covers most of the provinces. It gives more than a paper to the readers. It strictly follows the journalism ethics, supported by a team of Afghan and foreign staff. The paper is self-funded and pays its expenses through its advertisement revenues.
