Many households in French-speaking Switzerland without a newspaper
Thousands of households in French-speaking Switzerland did not receive a newspaper in their mailboxes today. A malfunction at the rotary printing plant prevented the delivery of the entire print run of the Neuchâtel dailies L'Express and L'Impartial, as well as the Vaud-based La Côte.
"We are doing the maximum to ensure that tomorrow's edition can be published," writes editor-in-chief Nicolas Willemin on Arcinfo, the website of the two Neuchâtel titles. Subscribers should receive the printed edition from Thursday on Friday.
The Vaud regional newspaper "La Côte", which is printed on the same rotary press in Neuchâtel, was also unable to be delivered. However, the 74,000 copies were printed at the Nouvelliste printing plant in Sion from 10 a.m. and then delivered. The daily articles were nevertheless available free of charge on the website Lacote.ch available. (SDA)
