MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN PARIS

France's national print media is heavily centralized in the capital, with the daily market split between legacy subscription broadsheets and free commuter editions. Prominent publications include La Croix, a historic Catholic daily founded in 1880, alongside 20 Minutes, a mass-circulation free tabloid distributed at transit hubs. The market also sustains specialized weeklies like Courrier International, which translates global press articles for local readers, and English-language editions such as the International New York Times. Paperboy lists 35 newspapers in Paris.
