Few institutions can claim as distinguished a place in recent Armenian history as the Hairenik Association, publishers of the Hairenik and the Armenian Weekly newspapers. Since 1899, Armenian Weekly's Armenian-language predecessor, the Hairenik, has reported, analyzed, and commented on the historic events of modern Armenian history, often in their staggering proportion, making it the longest-running Armenian-language newspaper in the world.

As the first waves of American-born, English-speaking generations grew older, the need for a more mature publication in English was eventually filled by the Hairenik Weekly. In 1969 the paper’s name changed to the Armenian Weekly. 

Today, along with news of general interest to the Armenian-American community, the Armenian Weekly publishes editorials, political analyses, regular columns, and short stories and poems. While providing a platform for the Armenian Revolutionary Federation and the Armenian National Committee of America, the newspaper also functions as a space where a wide variety of views and opinions can be discussed openly and honestly. 

Although the Armenian Weekly’s headquarters are located in Watertown, Massachusetts, subscribers hail from as near as Boston and as far as Buenos Aires and beyond. The Armenian Weekly continues to meet the expanding needs of a more sophisticated, news-conscious Diasporan-Armenian public.
