  • Haynt (הײַנט - "Today"; Yidishes tageblat 1906-08) was a Yiddish daily newspaper, published in Warsaw from 1906 until 1939.

    Newspaper Yidishes tageblat (יידישעס טאגעבלאט) was founded in 1906 by Zionist Samuel Jackan, a former contributor to the

    Ha-Tsefirah
    .

    In 1908 Yidishes tageblat changed its name to Haynt and quickly established itself as the premier Yiddish newspaper in the Congress Poland.[1]

    The practice of reprinting Yiddish fiction in serialized form helped Haynt set new circulation records for Yiddish journalism. By 1913 the newspaper reached a circulation of more than 150,000 copies.[2]

    From 1908 till 1932 Haynt was a private company. In 1932 a cooperative called Alt-Nay was formed by the staff, who administered the newspaper ever since.[3]
