An-Nahar (Arabic: النهار meaning The Morning or The Day‎), is the leading Arabic-language daily newspaper in Lebanon. It was first published on August 4, 1933 as a four-page, hand-set paper. The paper provided a platform for various free thinkers to express their views during the years of the Syria occupation of Lebanon. The paper can be best expressed as centre left though it's writers' views range across the political spectrum. The paper later established various other supplements and its own publishing house.

The paper, whose staff numbered five, including its founder Gebran Tueni, was started with a capital of 50 gold pieces raised from friends, and a circulation of a mere 500 copies. Gebran's son, Ghassan Tueni, and grandson, also named Gebran Tueni, were subsequent editors and publishers.

Gebran, Ghassan's son, editor of An-Nahar, who was elected to parliament for a Beirut constituency in the 2005 elections, was assassinated on the 12 December 2005 in Mkalles near Beirut in a car-bomb explosion. Gebran, a fiery critic of Syria and its hegemony in Lebanese affairs, had just returned from Paris, where he had been living for fear of assassination.

Gebran Ghassan Tueni (Arabic: جبران تويني‎) (September 15, 1957 – December 12, 2005) was a Lebanese politician and the former editor and publisher of the mass circulation An-Nahar daily newspaper in Beirut, Lebanon.

Tueni was a third generation journalist. An-Nahar was established by his grandfather, also named Gebran Tueni, in 1933. His father, Ghassan Tueni, ran the newspaper for decades.

Tueni had degrees in journalism, international relations and management from French universities. His mother was the famous Francophone, Lebanese Druze poet, Nadia Hamadeh Tueni. His uncle was the Druze, Telecommunications Minister Marwan Hamadeh.

Tueni came to international prominence in March 2000 when he wrote an editorial calling for the withdrawal of Syrian troops from Lebanon. In March 2005, he contributed to the Cedar Revolution demonstrations during which he gave the famous "In the name of God We, Muslims and Christians, Pledge that united we shall remain to the end of time to better defend our Lebanon" speech. In May 2005 he was elected a member of Parliament of Lebanon for the Greek Orthodox seat in Beirut on an anti-Syrian slate led by Saad al-Hariri, son of assassinated former Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri. He was a member of the political coalition Qornet Shehwan Gathering headed by Catholic Maronite bishop Youssef Bechara.
