List of newspapers in Lebanon

Hadikat al-Akhbar (The News Garden in English) is the first daily newspaper of Lebanon which was launched in 1858.[1] From 1858 to 1958 there were nearly 200 newspapers in the country.[2] Prior to 1963 the number of newspapers was more than 400.[3] However, the number reduced to 53 due to the 1963 press law.[3][4]

Censorship of the press in the country occurred during the Ottoman era.[5] It was also frequent in 1976 following the intervention of Syrian military in the Lebanese Civil War on behalf of Maronite Christians.[6] As of 2012, the newspapers were being published in three major languages of Arabic, English and French[7] and there were 12 Arabic dailies.[3]
