I don't like the Arabic font used on CNN either. I don't know why they used such an inelegant font for everything on their website, it looks very ridiculous and unfriendly to the eyes.
I have better examples that you might find interesting:
- http://www.madamasr.com http://www.madamasr.com $$ Give it some time for the webfont to load $$
- http://www.dw.com/ar/ http://www.dw.com/ar/
- http://www.bbc.com/persian http://www.bbc.com/persian
- vowelless 11y agoI am not a fan of the cnn font but I don't see Harir as a major improvement (it's too thick). The BBC and dw fonts look the most natural to me. Al Jazeera (http://www.aljazeera.net/portal http://www.aljazeera.net/portal) is also very readable.
- jacobolus 11y agoAll the examples of the Harir typeface from this post are the bold and bold caption fonts. Do you also think the regular and display regular fonts are too thick? https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/harir/regular/sample/arabic/12?s=webfonts https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/harir/regular/sample/arabic... https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/harir/display_regular/sample/arabic/36?s=webfonts https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/harir/display_regular/sampl...
