Mondo Times editors Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 12:49pm on Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009 | The French government is moving ahead with a plan to give away newspapers to young readers in an effort to turn them into regular customers. Eric Pfanner of the New York Times reported the story on October 27, 2009:
"The government Tuesday detailed plans of a project called “My Free Newspaper,” under which 18- to 24-year-olds will be offered a free, yearlong subscription to a newspaper of their choice.
About 60 publications are participating in the new project. In addition to papers like Le Monde and Le Figaro, they include a variety of local publications, as well as the Paris-based International Herald Tribune, the global edition of The New York Times. Even L’Équipe, a popular sports daily, is taking part.
Costs of the project are being shared by the newspapers and the state, with the government allocating €15 million, or $22.5 million, over three years."
