European Tribune - Comments - Le Monde, Journal of Record

Le Monde, Journal of Record | 35 comments (35 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

Even before I had the chance of having a full page on myself, I like these portraits. These, and some of their newer pages, like the two-page reports on various topics, and other in depth analysis they print, are some of the best things they've done in a long time.

i.e. their comments and in depth analysis pages have really improved, as their news pages have clearly declined a bit.

Re: Portraits (none / 1)

I must admit to not having read Le Monde much since the nouvelle formule, but the times I did, I always found the portrait to be too hagiographic for my taste (and also compared to Libé's... Why did they end up copying Libé, too ? they even are starting to have an "ecology" page..). Maybe I had bad luck.

Re: Portraits (none / 0)

But hagiography of Jerome is definitely a good thing ;-)

Portraits and in-depth analysis (none / 1)

I agree with you on these features. In fact they are the only pages I keep to read them later...
