National newspapers

Libération: opens a new chapter in the history of French journalism Libération, the French national newspaper, established by a group of left wing intellectuals and journalists in 1973 is undergoing restructuring. There is no doubt. Libé remains the favorite daily of forward looking professionals on both sides of the political spectrum. Since, the newspaper was launched every phase of its restructuring program was marked with the arrival of a new investor. For the past few weeks those familiar with the economic conditions of the newspaper(dwindling advertisement revenues, fall in circulation and the strategy of the new investor-Edouard de Rothschild) say that a departure of the managing editor is one of the restructuring options proposed by the investment banker. Therefore, if the new investor insists on implementing his investment strategy, the exit of the managing editor, who was behind the growth of the newspaper since, it was founded will surely open, another chapter in the history of this newspaper.
