Abstract
- This article focuses on the state of newspapers in France. In its passion, its quarrels, its gossip, its magnificent invective, its bad journalism but literary excellence, its infinite variety of political opinion, the French press is far more readable, entertaining and in some ways informative than the British or American. Because of the lack of competition the volume of advertising remains small. The "Temps" with only 70,000 circulation but the most important paper in France, is the cornerstone of the press interests. The "Temps" has three times the dignity of the New York "Times" and at least twice that of the "Times" of London.
