The Abendzeitung ("Evening Paper"), sometimes abbreviated to AZ, is a morning tabloid newspaper from Munich, Germany. A localized edition is published in Nuremberg. The paper is published six days a week; the masthead of the Saturday edition is held in light blue. Rivals on the Munich tabloid market are tz and a localized edition of the national mass circulation phenomenon Bild-Zeitung. AZ was founded by Werner Friedmann on 16 June 1948 as a street selling newspaper. Friedmann's goal was to provide Munich with a tabloid newspaper also appealing to the intellectual circles of society. Munich and environs are the main distribution areas of the paper. Friedmann was also one of the founders of the Munich broadsheet Süddeutsche Zeitung, in which the Friedmann family still holds a financial stake as minority shareholder with 18.75% of the capital of the publishing company.
