I enjoyed this English-language website. This news website certainly fills an existing need. It is important for everyone to have access to the news from multiple sources.

Mazal Tov but why don't you have a link to the English site in the Hebrew Ynet.
You have the Arab one??

I thought the same thing!
|
|
|
why no sport, and perhaps even weekly dvar torah, even haaretz has both

39. missing items

I understand you're beginning with a "core" of sections. When do you plan to add the rest of the sections that exist on the Hebrew site?
|
|
|
40. do you plan on offering this service as a subscription?

I am the editor of a Jewish newspaper and currently subscribe to Jewish Telegraphic Agency for my overseas Jewish news stories and features. Are you planning to offer a similar service to Jewish media outlets like mine?

PizzaIDF.org wants us to send pizzas to our solders. And what if our soldiers are used against us? Never thought I had to ask this question. The Arabs must be loughing their keffias off.

42. Is this a propoganda site ?
Achad HaAm , |

1. First of all Mazal Tov.
2. Will the english version be a english copy of ynet (good) showing good and bad issues onlive, or will it be a "pro-israel" wishy washy site like "Misrad HaChutz"
3. Will the news be translated to english immediatly or will it be hors late?

The comments here on the bottom look almost 100% like those on Arutzsheva, just a note.
But I'm really commenting on something else: I use to read Haaretz, but then couldnt takeit any more because of the propaganda. I'm not crazy- it simply was called propaganda in the English language. It was no longer (to me) called news or reporting, but was meant to give over a certain biased message.
Yediot Achronot seem to have been going on that path to a large extent as well, and I truly hope that in this English language version they will try and be more balanced. Not to offend anyone, but I honestly think that if some of the articles were translated into Arabic, that they would be readily accepted by the Muslim world. A Jewish source should at least try to be objective, if not pro-Jewish. Literally *all* the Arab news sources that I've seen are 100% anti Israel (either openly or only subtly), why cant Jews be pro Jewish- especially when they're representing fairness and justice?
In short: I wish you guys the best of luck and the best of wishes in the new endeaver of an English site, but I also hope and wish that you focus on who you are and what you represent, and not get caught up in any other motives...
All the best,
Meir
