UAE gets new English-language daily
A new Abu Dhabi-based English-language daily was launched in the United Arab Emirates on Thursday by a 200-strong editorial team headed by a former editor of Britain's Daily Telegraph. Appearing initially from Sunday to Friday, The National is the latest addition to the Abu Dhabi Media Com (ADMC) stable. Its editorial staff includes people who formerly worked on such publications as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Times and The Daily Telegraph. The 80-page National is the first English-language daily in oil-rich Abu Dhabi, capital of the seven-emirate federation. The UAE already has four other English dailies - Gulf News, Khaleej Times, Emirates Business 24 and 7Days. (AFP)
