For the information sector, the Covid-19 pandemic has been a double-edged sword.
On the one hand, decreases in income and the endangering of certain titles.
On the other hand, an increased need for information for the public, and therefore increasing online audiences.
If the economic model of information on the Internet is still under construction, several titles have developed, for many years, around paid formulas.
With, as a result, large communities of subscribers.
But in this little game, who is stronger?
Unsurprisingly, it is the North American titles that monopolize the first places: the
New York Times
and its 7.5 million digital subscribers are ahead of the
Washington Post
(3 million) and the
Wall Street Journal
(2.4 million).
Other Americans, British or Japanese follow.
And on the French side,
Le Monde is
emerging.
