The Armenian Reporter is an independent weekly published in English in the United States since 1967. It was established by Edward K. Boghosian (1927-2006) in New York City and the first issue appeared on November 2, 1967. Mr. Boghosian sold the newspaper to CS Media, a major Armenian media enterprise, in May 2006. Mr. Boghossian's daughter, Sylva Boghossian, continued as publisher through the end of March 2009.
The editor since October 2006 has been Vincent Lima.
The Armenian Reporter appears in two weekly print editions:
- Eastern U.S. edition, published in Paramus, New Jersey.
- Western U.S. edition, published in Burbank, California, distributed free of charge at locations throughout Southern California. Mail subscriptions are available.
The full weekly content for both editions is also available online at no cost.
Coverage is comprehensive, concentrating on news on the Republic of Armenia, the Armenian diaspora especially the Armenian-American community news, U.S. and international politics as they relate to Armenians; Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh; and Armenians in arts, culture, and entertainment.
With three U.S. offices in Paramus, N.J., Burbank, Calif., and Washington, D.C., and one in Yerevan, Armenia, and freelancers around the globe, the "Armenian Reporter" is the largest single Armenian news source in English in the world.
Famous quotes containing the words armenian and/or reporter:
“The exile is a singular, whereas refugees tend to be thought of in the mass. Armenian refugees, Jewish refugees, refugees from Franco Spain. But a political leader or artistic figure is an exile. Thomas Mann yesterday, Theodorakis today. Exile is the noble and dignified term, while a refugee is more hapless.... What is implied in these nuances of social standing is the respect we pay to choice. The exile appears to have made a decision, while the refugee is the very image of helplessness.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“For a long time I was reporter to a journal, of no very wide circulation, whose editor has never yet seen fit to print the bulk of my contributions, and, as is too common with writers, I got only my labor for my pains. However, in this case my pains were their own reward.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
