Der Freitag (Friday) is a German weekly newspaper established in 1990. It originally described itself as "the East West Weekly", being established in the year of German reunification, but underwent a substantial rebranding in 2009, including the addition of the definite article (it was previously just Freitag). The rebranding was judged a success by the Society for News Design, judging it one of the three "World's Best Designed Newspapers" in 2010.^[1] This followed the 2008 acquisition of the paper by Jakob Augstein. Der Freitag publishes online daily, as well as weekly in print. It has a syndication agreement with the British newspaper The Guardian, publishing a number of German translations of Guardian content in every issue.
