New French language newspaper launched in Algeria
A new French language daily, Le Temps, was launched earlier this month in Algeria. Le Temps is "a daily general, modern, with emphasis of current information, such as Gaza today or about sports tomorrow," Djamel Kaouane, the publication's director, told AFP. "But it will also be relevant to local subjects," he added.
In a letter to his readers, the publisher stressed that this new medium will be "an open space to the society, to its pulsations." Forty thousand copies of the first issue - which was 24 pages decorated with many photos - were printed. In Algeria, there are more than thirty newspapers, in French or Arabic.
