Here's some history about our name!

Mondoweiss was founded in 2007 by Phil Weiss, a lifelong journalist who wanted to turn his attention to covering issues related to Palestine in the US.

One definition of the word "mondo" is "very, or extremely". So the name "Mondoweiss" was meant as a lighthearted joke that the site would be "extremely Weiss", because initially Phil was the only author.

Since then, the site has grown and evolved into a full-fledged news and analysis publication with staff in the United States and Palestine. We are one of the only U.S.-based publications with a full Palestine news bureau and not simply one reporter in the area.
