The publication's headquarters are in Southfield. The Jewish News of Detroit, Michigan, bills itself as "the largest, most comprehensive Jewish newspaper in North America." The newspaper was founded in 1942. In 1951 the newspaper absorbed an older newspaper, the Detroit Jewish Chronicle & The Legal Chronicle, which was established in 1916. In the 1980s it was purchased by Charles "Chuck" Buerger, the owner of the Baltimore Jewish Times. Buerger expanded the scope and the size of the paper, and it regularly exceeded 200 pages. Buerger died in 1996, and the paper was taken over by his son Andrew. In 2000 Andrew Buerger sold it, along with The Atlanta Jewish Times, to Jewish Renaissance Media, which also operates the website Jewish.com. In 2005 the newspaper claimed an "adult readership of more than 40,000 every week". In 2005 the newspaper won a number of Michigan Press Association awards, including first place for Design, Editorial Writing, Local Columnist, and Special Section, and first and second place for Feature Story. As of 2011, Arthur M. Horwitz was the publisher and executive editor, and Jackie Headapohl was the managing editor of The Detroit Jewish News and Red Thread magazine insert.
