Ethiopian Herald is a government-owned English-language newspaper published by the Ethiopian Press Agency, which also publishes the Amharic-language Addis Zemen.
It was launched as a weekly on 3 July 1943.[2] Jan Hoy Simpson, an Englishman, was its first editor. Later editors were from the United States. The first Ethiopian editor was Ato Yacob Wolde Mariam in 1960.[3][4] It became a daily at the end of 1958, as did Addis Zemen.[2]
