The Zimbabwe Herald and Sunday Mail are two of the most widely read newspapers in Zimbabwe. Here's a brief overview of each:
The Zimbabwe Herald
- Published daily, Monday to Saturday
- Circulation: around 30,000 copies
- Founded in 1891, making it one of the oldest newspapers in Zimbabwe
- Owned by the Zimbabwe Newspapers (Private) Limited (ZNPL), a subsidiary of the state-owned Zimbabwe Newspapers Group (ZIMG)
- Known for its conservative and pro-government stance
- Covers local and international news, politics, business, sports, and entertainment
The Sunday Mail
- Published weekly, every Sunday
- Circulation: around 50,000 copies
- Founded in 1942
- Also owned by ZNPL and ZIMG
- Known for its investigative journalism and in-depth reporting on politics, corruption, and social issues
- Covers a wide range of topics, including news, politics, business, sports, and entertainment
Both newspapers are widely available in Zimbabwe and can be found in newsstands, supermarkets, and online. However, it's worth noting that the Zimbabwe Herald is often seen as a mouthpiece for the government, while the Sunday Mail is known for its more critical reporting style.
In recent years, both newspapers have faced challenges, including declining circulation and advertising revenue, as well as competition from online news sources and social media. Despite these challenges, they remain important sources of news and information for many Zimbabweans.
