History
After its founding in 1924, Al Joumhouria ceased publication for an extended period. At attempt at resuming in 1985 was not completed because of the Lebanese Civil War. A second, by owner and editor Elias Murr in 2005, was halted when a failed assassination attempt left Murr with serious injuries.[2] Finally the paper was published on 28 February 2011, the first issue since the initial cessation of publication.[3] Its release was accompanied by a significant advertising campaign featuring the paper's motto, "when silence became betrayal, Al Joumhouria spoke."[4]

The paper is organized into sections: Local and international news, business, arts, science, health, style, culture, sports, technology, and religion; over 32 color pages.[5] It is also available on for iPad—making Al Joumhouria the first Lebanese Arabic newspaper with an iPad application[6]—and e-reader devices.
