Vos Iz Neias? ("What's the news?" in Yiddish), founded in 2007 and since 2021 rebranded as "VIN News",[1] is an online news site that caters to the Orthodox Jewish and Hasidic communities, primarily in the New York metropolitan area.[2] Vos Iz Neias competes with Yeshiva World News as the major news website for the Haredi Jewish world.[3]
Vos Iz Neias is owned by four anonymous Orthodox Jewish investors.[3] There are advertisers and writers, but since all business is conducted through the internet and through PayPal, the anonymity of the investors are maintained.[4]
Vos Iz Neias endorsed Donald Trump in the 2020 U.S. Presidential election, in part, because in the previous term he has brought economic growth and kept his campaign promises, as well as due to his support of school vouchers and position on Israel.[5][6]
