Haaretz speaks in the voice of Israel's liberal left, the country's oldest daily and its most willing to indict its own government. In Hebrew and English it pairs rigorous reporting with unsparing opinion, which is why ratings land it clearly on the left while crediting its accuracy. That defiance has a price: in 2024 the government voted to boycott it, cutting state advertising over the publisher's remarks.
