31 Egyptian newspapers in the directory

Cairo has long served as a historic center for Arab journalism, anchoring a large domestic print market. The state-owned Al-Ahram, founded in 1875, remains the most widely circulated broadsheet in the country, operating alongside other major legacy papers like the government-owned Al-Akhbar. Privately owned daily newspapers introduced during the 2000s, such as Al-Masry Al-Youm and Al-Shorouk, provide alternative editorial perspectives within the mainstream national market. While Arabic publications heavily dominate local newsstands, the press sector also supports foreign-language reporting through established outlets like the English-language Daily News Egypt.
