Koran ini adalah salah satu dari dua puluh sembilan publikasi yang diterbitkan oleh Saudi Research and Publishing Company (SRPC), anak perusahaan dari [[Saudi Research and Marketing Group]] (SRMG).<ref>{{cite news|last=Rajasingham|first=K.T.|title=Khaled A.

== Kontroversi ==
Meskipun koran dimiliki oleh SMRG yang dekat dengan pemerintah Saudi, ada beberapa insiden di mana wartawan koran diberhentikan oleh pemerintah. Pada Maret 1992, pemimpin redaksi dari Arab News, Khalid Almeena sempat dipecat karena mencetak ulang wawancara dengan pemimpin Muslim Mesir Sheikh [[Omar Abdul-Rahman]] yang telah diterbitkan dalam Harian AS.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Affendi|first=Abdelwahab|title=Eclipse of Reason: The Media in the Muslim World|journal=''[[Journal of International Affairs]]''|date=Summer 1993|volume=47|issue=1|url=http://www.questia.com/read/1G1-14469404/eclipse-of-reason-the-media-in-the-muslim-world|accessdate=29 September 2013}}{{Subscription required|via=Questia}}</ref>

Insiden kontroversial lainnya terjadi pada bulan April 2007, ketika wartawan Fawaz Turki dipecat karena menerbitkan kolom pada kekejaman [[Indonesia]] selama [[Pendudukan Indonesia di Timor Timur|Pendudukan Timor Timur 1975-1999]].<ref name="KarlekarMarchant2008">{{cite book|author1=Karin Deutsch Karlekar|author2=Eleanor Marchant|title=Freedom of the Press 2007: A Global Survey of Media Independence|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=ba65SKN2I_UC&pg=PA263|accessdate=26 January 2014|year=2008|publisher=Rowman & Littlefield|isbn=978-0-7425-5582-2|page=263}}</ref> Ia juga melaporkan bahwa Turki sebelumnya telah diperingatkan oleh pemerintah Saudi terkait untuk menghentikan kritik mengenai Presiden Mesir, [[Hosni Mubarak]].<ref name=Rwb2007>{{cite web|title=2007 Annual Report.
