about
Die Zeit (pronounced [diː tsait] in German, literally The Time, more idiomatically The Times) is a German nationwide weekly newspaper that is highly respected for its quality journalism. It was first published on February 21, 1946. With a circulation of 488,036 and an estimated readership of slightly above 2 million, it is the most widely read German weekly newspaper. The publishing house, Zeitverlag Gerd Bucerius in Hamburg, is owned by the Holtzbrinck Publishing Group. The paper is considered to be highbrow. Its political direction is centrist to social liberal, but has oscillated a number of times between slightly left-leaning and slightly right-leaning. It is known for its very large physical size and its long and detailed articles. The first edition was printed on 21 February 1946. The founding publishers were Gerd Bucerius, Lovis H. Lorenz, Richard Tüngel and Ewald Schmidt di Simoni. Another important founder was Marion Gräfin Dönhoff, who published Die Zeit from 1972 until her death in 2002, from 1983 onwards together with former German chancellor Helmut Schmidt, later joined by Josef Joffe and former German federal secretary of culture Michael Naumann. Subscribers also get access to audio downloads of selected articles every week. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
