Every week DIE ZEIT reaches more than two million readers with strong journalism. Since DIE ZEIT first appeared in 1946, it has reinvented itself time and again, but has remained true to its principle: to offer the reader thoroughly researched reports and opinion-making comments.

Irregular delivery. Who's to blame???
I love Die Zeit very much. However, its delivery to my address has been very irregular. Each week it arrives on a different day and sometimes it skips a week and I receive two issues the next week. I suspect the blame should go to the US Postal system.

A unique weekly journal
There is nothing in the English-speaking world that compares to Die Zeit. If you've seen recent issues of Time or Newsweek, it's sort of what they're aiming at -- but Die Zeit takes hours to read, while the former publications can be read in under an hour. Die Zeit is filled with cultural information, news analysis, economics, new opportunies, business, and has always been known for its high editorial standards and excellent writing.

A Great News Source.
One of the world's great newspapers. Also a great place for me to study the German language and gain a better understanding of German history and culture.

Not for all, essential for some
One of the biggest names in the German newspaper market, Die Zeit is devoted to its weekly publication rhythm in structure and content. It is not last-minute but relevant, in-depth, and filled with background. It is not an easy newspaper to read by any means, you do need high-level German in areas of politics, cultural affairs, economics, etc... to enjoy its full power. It is the central organ for the German academia, universities, and intellectual circles, an important source that is usually right on the money and has an autonomous voice in political affairs and economics (though for political affairs I personally prefer the slightly more Liberal Frankfurter Rundschau or the NZZ, for economics the FAZ). If your German is good enough and you are interested, I definitely recommend Die Zeit...though remember: you need Zeit to read Die Zeit!P.S. Oh yeah, and it is THE source for certain job ads in Germany, that is, for the academic job search, high-level engineering, research, labs, and some business. If you are looking for a job in Germany, find out which newspaper to read, the market is fairly precisely segmented!
