Rodong Sinmun (IPA: [ɾo.doŋ ɕin.mun]; Korean: 로동신문; lit. labor news) is a North Korean official newspaper of record[2] of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea. It was first published on 1 November 1945, as Chŏngro (Korean: 정로; Hancha: 正路; lit. correct path), serving as a communication channel for the North Korea Bureau of the Communist Party of Korea; it was renamed in September 1946. Quoted frequently by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) and international media, it is regarded as a source of official North Korean viewpoints on many issues.

An English-language version of Rodong Sinmun was launched in January 2012.[3]

The editor-in-chief is Kim Pyong-ho.[4] A list of articles published in Rodong Sinmun since 1946 is available online on the websites of the Information Center on North Korea (unibook.unikorea.go.kr) and the North Korea information portal (nkinfo.unikorea.go.kr).[5]
