Qatar Chronicle was a daily English language news web portal published in Qatar. Its website ceased publishing new stories in 2015.
The publication had an active social media presence.[1]
History
The Qatar Chronicle was founded in September 2012 as an English language news portal.[2][3]
Though it began reporting mostly on events and happenings in Qatar, it quickly diversified into other areas including politics, sports, international news, entertainment and travel.[4]
The Chronicle aimed to deliver a balanced perspective on local and world events that was not always in line with the official line which local media were encouraged to follow.[4]
