It is published in Greek and there is also an English edition, both print and digital. Kathimerini English Edition is published in Greece and Cyprus along with the New York Times International. Kathimerini also produces a wide range of leading magazines, including Vogue Greece with Conde Nast International, as well as publications for The Walt Disney Company Greece.
Considered a high-quality [4] broadsheet and Greece's paper of record, Kathimerini traditionally identifies with a broad range of the political spectrum, from the liberal center to the moderate right,[5][6][7] while covering the positions and hosting analyses from all the main political parties and opinions from columnists with different points of view.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][excessive citations]
History
Kathimerini is a newspaper title with over 100 years of history.[15] It was founded by Georgios Vlachos, a prominent antivenizelist, in 1919 and was later inherited by his daughter Helen Vlachos (Eléni Vláchou) and her husband, retired submarine commander Constantine Loundras.[2] Kathimerini was traditionally perceived as one of the main[citation needed] conservative voices of Greek media.[5] The newspaper was highly critical of Eleftherios Venizelos in the early 20th century, and also opposed Georgios Papandreou in the postwar years.
It maintains a traditional layout, with its original griffin logo, and incorporates printed supplements in its Sunday edition. Eleni Vlachou sold the company shortly before her death to George Koskotas. Aristeidis Alafouzos,[2] bought Kathimerini newspaper in 1988, pulling it out of a spiral of decline to turn it into one of the country’s leading dailies, both in terms of circulation and its influence on economic developments, with an international reputation. Throughout his life Aristeidis Alafouzos entered the challenging businesses of construction, shipping and publishing, and emerged a champion in all three.[16] He died in 2017 and was succeeded by his son Themistoklis Alafouzos [17]
Circulation
Kathimerini's daily edition circulation figures are not available since the newspaper has prohibited press agencies from releasing such data.[6] Its Sunday edition had a circulation of 95,007 in January 2014.[6]
