Haynt

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 Shmuel Yankev Yatskan, a former contributor to the Hebrew language paper Ha-Tsefirah. In 1908 Yidishes tageblat changed its name to Haynt and quickly established itself as the premier Yiddish newspaper in the Congress Poland.

Practice of reprinting Yiddish fiction in serialized form, helped Haynt set new circulation records for Yiddish journalism. By 1913 newspaper reached circulation of more than 150,000.

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