Le Monde Appoints First Female as Top Editor

The New York Times reported on January 19, 2010:

"The new executive editor, Sylvie Kauffmann, 55, a former deputy executive editor and most recently a Southeast Asia correspondent for the paper, replaced Alain Frachon, who was appointed in 2007. She has been with Le Monde since 1988.

“It’s a very exciting job, but it’s also sobering, considering the terrible difficulties of the printed press,” Ms. Kauffmann said in a telephone interview.

She called it “a huge challenge” to lead a revered newspaper struggling to sustain itself financially in the Internet age.

“Le Monde is very conservative in its methods,” she said. “It has deeply rooted traditions and very strong values. But we are at the foot of the mountain now — we must change, invent, imagine.”
