Rose al-Yusuf
Encyclopedia
Rose al-Yūsuf) is an Egyptian weekly magazine founded on October 26, 1925. It is a pro-government publication published by "Rose al Yusuf Establishment" ( مؤسسة روز اليوسف in Arabic
).
The editor of the magazine Mohamed El-Tabii
had a great role in establishing the paper alongside Rose al Yusuf, the owner, a Lebanese
actress of Turkish
origin who had gone into journalism and created a great name for herself.
Later on other renowned Egyptian journalists worked as editors in the magazine including Mostafa Amin
and Ali Amin.
The magazine started as a cultural and literary publication by Rose al Yusuf, but became a political magazine by 1928. It had since lost its independence, functioning as a mouthpiece for the Hosni Mubarak regime prior to Mubarak's ouster from the presidency. Like other government propaganda sources, the magazine is now adopting a tone more in line with the general anti-Mubarak sentiment.
In 1935, the publisher added a daily newspaper with the same name.
Both the weekly magazine and daily newspaper are published in Arabic.
