The Jerusalem Post is a broadsheet newspaper based in Jerusalem, founded in 1932 during the British Mandate of Palestine by Gershon Agron as The Palestine Post. In 1950, it changed its name to The Jerusalem Post. In 2004, the paper was bought by Mirkaei Tikshoret, a diversified Israeli media firm controlled by investor Eli Azur (who in 2014 also acquired the newspaper Maariv).[4]The Jerusalem Post is published in English. Previously, it also had a French edition.
Originally a left-wing newspaper, it underwent a noticeable shift to the political right in the late 1980s.[5][6] From 2004 editor David Horovitz moved the paper to the center, and his successor in 2011, Steve Linde, pledged to provide balanced coverage of the news along with views from across the political spectrum.[7][8] In April 2016, Linde stepped down as editor-in-chief and was replaced by Yaakov Katz,[9] a former military reporter for the paper who previously served as an adviser to former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.[10]
In March 2023, Katz stepped down as editor-in-chief and was replaced by Avi Mayer.[11] Nine months later, Mayer was replaced by Zvika Klein.[12]
The paper professes to be in the Israeli political center,[13] yet is considered to be on the political right;[14] its editorial line is critical of political corruption,[15] and supportive of the separation of religion and state in Israel.[16] It is also a strong proponent of greater investment by the State of Israel in World Jewry and educational programs for the Jewish diaspora.[17]

^"On the issue of defense, the paper moved editorially in the post-1990 years between a centrist position under David Makovsky (1999–2000) and David Horowitz (2004– ) as editors, and a right-wing position under David *Bar-Illan (1990–96) and Brett [sic] Stephens (2002–4). A neo-liberal capitalist outlook on economic and financial affairs replaced the socialist outlook of earlier years.""Jerusalem Post". Encyclopedia Judaica. 2007.
