== History ==
Founded in 1957 by [[Dimitri Gogos]], Bill Stefanou and noted author [[Alekos Doukas]]. The newspaper is published by Ethnic Publications Pty Ltd.

In its early days, the newspaper was heavily left-leaning, and was considered radical by the Greek community in Australia although it soon grew in popularity.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Greek-Australians' Neos Kosmos newspaper turns 60, Ioanna Fotiadi {{!}} Kathimerini|url=http://www.ekathimerini.com/224154/article/ekathimerini/community/greek-australians-neos-kosmos-newspaper-turns-60|website=www.ekathimerini.com|language=en|access-date=2020-05-09}}</ref> ''Neos Kosmos'' was known to advocate for issues which impacted the Greek community, like unionization and [[worker's rights]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Price|first=Charles Archibald|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tokhAAAAMAAJ&q=neos+kosmos+newspaper|title=Greeks in Australia|date=1975|publisher=Australian National University Press|isbn=978-0-7081-0571-9|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last1=Gilson|first1=Miriam|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7EA1AQAAIAAJ&q=neos+kosmos+newspaper|title=The foreign-language press in Australia, 1848-1964|last2=Zubrzycki|first2=Jerzy|date=1967|publisher=Australian National University|pages=88|language=en}}</ref>
