History

[edit | edit source]

Daily Times was launched on 9 April 2002 by Salman Taseer with Najam Sethi serving as its first editor-in-chief.[7][8] It struggled to attract advertisers in its early years. Later, it launched its lifestyle supplement, Sunday Times, which was included with the newspaper's Sunday edition.[8] At a time when social media was not prevalent, Sunday Times covered celebrity events and social gatherings, drawing substantial advertising revenue.[8] Over time, Sunday Times has become a major source of income for the newspaper.[8][5]
