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