24 heures (“24 hours”) is the French-speaking Swiss daily newspaper with the highest circulation .
history
The previous newspaper Annonces et avis divers was founded by David Duret and appeared for the first time on June 29, 1762 as a weekly (Tuesdays) with four pages. It was renamed several times, first in Feuille périodique , then Feuille d'avis and finally in 1799 in Feuille d'avis de Lausanne .
In 1803 the newspaper passed to the founder's son, Daniel Duret, and was taken over by Daniel-Louis Lacombe in 1817, who in turn ceded it to Jean-Ulrich-Martin Allenspach in 1833. Under his direction, the publication expanded in 1851 to twice a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) and in 1863 to three times a week (Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays). In 1872 it finally appeared on working days. Jean, later his son Paul Allenspach, ran the newspaper until 1907, when the publisher-limited company Société de la Feuille d'avis de Lausanne et des Imprimeries réunies was founded. Marc Lamunière took over the management of the newspaper in 1952 from his father Jacques and entrusted Marcel Pasche with the redesign of the daily newspaper. On April 10, 1972 it was renamed to its current name 24 heures . In 1982 the newspaper became the property of the Edipresse founded by Marc Lamunière .
In 2010/2011 Edipresse ceded its Swiss media activities, bundled in Presse Publications SR SA, to the German-speaking Swiss media group Tamedia .
Since 2005 appears 24 heures in four regional editions. Like all Swiss retail newspapers, it has been struggling with a steady decline in circulation for several years. At the beginning of the 20th century it was around 26,000 and then increased to 95,000 copies by the mid-2000s, only to drop to 50,445 (previous year 55,049) by 2018.
Since January 1, 2018, only one French and one German-speaking Tamedia editorial team has been creating the international / national cover (domestic, foreign, business and sport) for the 12 paid daily and 2 Sunday newspapers of Tamedia. Ariane Dayer is the head of the French-speaking editorial team (she also remains editor-in-chief of Le Matin Dimanche ). The editor-in-chief of 24 heures has been Claude Ansermoz since the beginning of 2018, he succeeded Thierry Meyer. The joint Newsexpress will be located at 20 minutes / Le Matin , which will supply all Tamedia news portals with breaking news , short agency reports , photo series and live tickers .
