Der Yid
''Der Yid'' ( yi, דער איד, "The Jew") is a New York-based Yiddish-language weekly newspaper, founded in 1953. The newspaper is published by Satmar Hasidim, but is widely read within the broader Yiddish-speaking Haredi community.

After the paper was bought out in 1953 by a rival Yiddish newspaper, ''Der Tog'' ("The Day"), forming the '' Tog-Morgn-Zhurnal'' ("The Day-Morning Journal"), he was laid off from the new company. Rosmarin decided to start his own newspaper. Religiously observant, Dr. Rosmarin had run columns on the biographies of rabbis and Jewish customs while working for ''The Morning Journal''.
