history

After the newspaper was founded in 1985, it changed hands for the first time in 1988 and was henceforth marketed by L'Expansion under the name La Tribune de l'Expansion . In 1992 the name changes for the second time: after the merger with the newspaper La Cote Desfossés it appears again as La Tribune Desfossés . The following year, the luxury goods manufacturer Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) acquired the Desfossés International publishing group, whereupon the newspaper received its current name La Tribune . In February 2008 La Tribune is sold to News Participations, a holding owned by Alain Weill. During the same period, LVMH acquired the rival business newspaper Les Échos .

The last printed edition of the newspaper appeared on January 30, 2012. After France Soir , La Tribune is the second French daily newspaper with nationwide distribution that can only be read online and by subscribers. At the same time, the paper was sold to France Economie Régions (FER) and the Internet Hi-Media group. With the restructuring, 50 of 165 employees are to keep their jobs, 31 of them journalists. The reasons given for the realignment are the newspaper crisis and the loss of advertising income with the growing importance of the Internet for the dissemination of information.

Competitor

The newspaper's main competitor in France is Les Échos .
