The Tehran Times is an English-language daily newspaper published in Iran, founded in 1979 as the self-styled "voice of the Islamic Revolution". While not state-owned, it is considered state-controlled and closely tied to the hardline factions within the Iranian government.[1]
Academics, ambassadors, policymakers and international affairs analysts frequently contribute to the newspaper.[2][3]
