In November 2016, International Media Investments (IMI) announced the acquisition of The National from Abu Dhabi Media (ADM) and The National was relaunched on 1 July 2017, under the editorship of Mina Al-Oraibi.[2] History and profileThe National was first published on 17 April 2008 by Abu Dhabi Media.[3][4] The government-owned media company ran the newspaper along with other publications, including Aletihad, Zahrat Al Khaleej, Majed and National Geographic Al Arabiya (in partnership with National Geographic).[5] In 2016, The National was acquired by International Media Investments, a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Media Investment Corporation, a private investment company owned by Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan that is also part-owner of Sky News Arabia.[5][6] The National has had three previous editors-in-chief: Mohammed Al Otaiba served from February 2014 to October 2016;[7] Hassan Fattah from June 2009 to October 2013;[8] and Martin Newland, who was the launch editor, from April 2008 until June 2009.[9][10]With its pledge to emulate Western newspaper standards and to "help society evolve", The National claims to be an anomaly in the Middle East, where most media are tightly controlled by the government. Before The National moved to private ownership there were several high-level resignations across the editorial team regarding spiked stories and the newspaper's impotency when covering stories on Abu Dhabi.[7] However, a major goal in establishing the paper was to have respect from the international community on the part of the government.[11] During the initial launch The National built its staff levels up to 200, recruiting from newspapers around the world, including the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times and The Daily Telegraph of Britain.[12] [4] Martin Newland was editor of the Daily Telegraph from 2003 to 2005, and he took with him many former Telegraph employees, most notably Colin Randall (former Telegraph executive news editor), Sue Ryan (former managing editor) and senior photographer Stephen Lock (who covered domestic and foreign news and the international fashion circuit during 20 years on The Daily Telegraph).[13] The 2008 circulation of the paper was 60.000 copies.[14] ContentThe paper is a single selection organised into five daily sections (News, Business, Opinion, Arts & Lifestyle and Sport) and a Weekend edition which comes out every Friday. It covers local and international news, business, sports, arts and life, travel and motoring. In addition, The National publishes two magazines: Ultratravel (quarterly) and Luxury (monthly.) The target group of the paper can be described as 25+, educated, affluent, out and about, business leaders, decision makers and key influencers.[1] Criticism and controversiesPrior to International Media Investments acquisitionIn a 2012 article in the American Journalism Review, former foreign desk editor Tom O'Hara contended that coverage was skewed to favor the agenda of the government of the United Arab Emirates. He said that the newspaper had a "meticulous censorship process" that directly influenced coverage and word usage in the newspaper, such as prohibiting use of the term "Persian Gulf". He said that the newspaper engaged in self-censorship, suppressing coverage of subjects deemed as casting an unfavorable light on the UAE royal family. He said that, among other things, coverage of the Libyan uprising was suppressed, as were articles about Wikileaks and gay rights.[15] The New Republic reported in February 2013 that The National had failed to live up to high expectations that had been raised when it was established. The magazine said that the newsroom has had a series of crises during the preceding five years, and that "tensions over the management and direction of the paper have been simmering behind the scenes, with leadership changes, budget cuts, infighting and allegations of rampant self-censorship conspiring to trigger a series of defections that have depleted the paper of much of its marquee talent". The article described examples of rampant self-censorship, and said the newspaper's story was "a cautionary tale about pursuing journalism in a censored society".[9]References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=UAE|url=http://www.publicitas.com/fileadmin/uploads/italy/Files/ME_portfolio_01.pdf|publisher=Publicitas|accessdate=8 June 2012|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20121202073858/http://www.publicitas.com/fileadmin/uploads/italy/Files/ME_portfolio_01.pdf|archivedate=2 December 2012|deadurl=yes|df=dmy-all}} 2. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.thenational.ae/uae/international-media-investments-announces-appointment-of-mina-al-oraibi-as-editor-in-chief-of-the-national-1.92850|title=International Media Investments announces appointment of Mina Al-Oraibi as Editor in Chief of The National|work=The National|date=24 June 2017|access-date=8 January 2018|language=en}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/apr/10/pressandpublishing|title=Martin Newland's Abu Dhabi newspaper ready for launch|last=Brook|first=Stephen|date=10 April 2008|work=The Guardian|access-date=8 January 2018|last2=|first2=|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077}} 4. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/29/business/media/29adcol.html|title=A New Mideast Paper Vows to Be Different|last=Timmons|first=Heather|date=29 April 2008|work=The New York Times|access-date=8 January 2018|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}} 5. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.thenational.ae/uae/international-media-investments-acquires-ownership-of-the-national-1.197247|title=International Media Investments acquires ownership of The National|work=The National|date=16 November 2016|access-date=8 January 2018|language=en}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=http://hexus.net/ce/items/entertainment/27722-abu-dhabi-media-investment-corp-british-sky-broadcasting-form-joint-venture/|title=Abu Dhabi Media Investment Corp and British Sky Broadcasting form joint venture|work=Hexus|access-date=29 January 2018|language=en-GB}} 7. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.thenational.ae/uae/mohammed-al-otaiba-named-new-editor-in-chief-of-the-national-1.276649|title=Mohammed Al Otaiba named new editor-in-chief of The National|work=The National|date= 30 January 2014|access-date=8 January 2018|language=en}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.thenational.ae/uae/the-national-s-editor-in-chief-steps-down-1.573824|title=The National’s editor-in-chief steps down|first=Ola|last=Salem|work=The National|date=2 October 2013|access-date=8 January 2018|language=en}} 9. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://newrepublic.com/article/112542/national-abu-dhabis-brief-experiment-press-freedom|title='We Are Not Here to Fight for Press Freedom': The National wanted to be the Times of the Middle East.
