Newsday is taking a break
Newsday is taking a break, which means we will not publish any articles over the next few weeks.
Newsday launched on 1 August 2025, offering South Africans a new news publication with the latest political, financial, and general news.
Apart from breaking news, Newsday carried reports about municipal infrastructure projects and the collapse of services due to mismanagement and corruption.
The publication was powered by three young journalists, Seth Thorne, Daniel Puchert, and Kimberley Kersten.
They have done a fantastic job at writing interesting articles and creating engaging content for Newsday’s growing audience.
Over the last seven months, Newsday’s audience grew to nearly half a million monthly readers and 35,000 registered members.
In January 2026, the publication served well above 1 million pages to its readers and experienced a surge in user engagement.
This strong traffic growth confirmed that there is demand for Newsday’s content in the South African media landscape.
However, in 2026, Seth, Daniel, and Kimberley moved on to new adventures, which is why we are pausing the publication.
Newsday is now assembling a new team of journalists to continue the great work which these three young journalists started.
