Geneva newspaper Le Courrier celebrates its 140th anniversary
The independent Geneva daily newspaper Le Courrier reaches the proud age of 140 this year. Today, the newspaper sees itself as "critical" and "free from ties to parties or denominations". The editorial team also sees itself as "far removed from the pressures of marketing".
In its anniversary year, the newspaper would like to enter into a dialog with its readers. To this end, an interactive section has been created. In addition, public discussions on the future of the press will be held in Geneva, Lausanne and Neuchâtel. A competition for newspaper illustrations and a series of historical articles are also planned. The front page of Saturday's Courrier was that of January 5, 1868.
