Zimbabwean Newspaper Zimbabwe are a group of committed and professional Zimbabwean journalists and friends from around the world who have come together to start the first newspaper for Zimbabweans in exile. The Zimbabwean is edited by Wilf Mbanga, founder and first Chief Executive of Associated Newspapers of Zimbabwe, the publishers of The Daily News (closed down in 2003 under the terms of the Zimbabwe Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act).

Two weekly titles are published – The Zimbabwean (on Thursdays), and The Zimbabwean on Sunday.

The paper has been a constant thorn in the side of the Zimbabwean authorities, who hi-jacked and burnt one of our delivery trucks full of newspapers in 2008 following the abortive Presidential run-off poll. Following that, the Mugabe regime imposed a punitive duty as a tariff barrier in order to kill the newspaper. We survived this, although with a drastically reduced print run, and it was finally lifted in August 2009. The hard copy is still printed outside Zimbabwe and trucked in to exploit a loophole in the draconian AIPPA legislation ? which requires all local newspapers to register with the government Media and Information Commission.
