Monaco Hebdo is a Monegasque weekly newspaper established in 1995. It is the only weekly newspaper in the principality.[2]

History

[edit]

The first issue of the newspaper was published on 11 May 1995.[3] In 2007, the newspaper employed three journalists and had a circulation of 3,000.[4] It is owned by the Caroli Group.[5]

In 2005, Didier Laurens was appointed editor-in-chief of the newspaper, but was dismissed the following year and replaced by Miléna Radoman. Laurens claimed that his dismissal was the result of the newspaper's reporting of a private land sale by Monaco's pension fund (caisse de retraite [fr]) to Franck Biancheri. However, Antonio Caroli, owner of the Caroli Group, denied the claims and stated that Laurens had been dismissed due to problems with superiors and subordinates.[6] Radoman remained in the position through 2014.[7]
