Laws also govern press content and proscribed subjects. By law, the National Media Council, which is appointed by the president, licenses all publications and issues press credentials to editors. The country's largest English- and Arabic language newspapers, Al Khaleej and Gulf News, are privately owned.
Īl-Ittihad is today still government-owned. The first English daily, Khaleej Times, was launched in 1978. Other papers had been printed and circulated before that time, but because of print and publication issues, Al-Ittihad is still considered the first actual one. The first newspaper to appear in the United Arab Emirates was Al-Ittihad, considered the first proper Arabic-language newspaper in 1969, followed by Al Khaleej, the first Arabic daily, in 1970.
