Le Nouvelliste has been indispensable to my project, so I thought I would share their history, mission statement, and target audience.
Le Nouvelliste was founded in 1898, which makes it the oldest daily newspaper in Haiti. It has a circulation of over 18,000 copies for a readership of over 100,000 people in nineteen cities. Copies are passed throughout offices, libraries, and households.
Le Nouvelliste used to have a reputation of being exclusive only to intellectuals. However, this perception has changed over time. "Le Nouvelliste has earned a place in society that reflects its desire to inform. Now, readers of Le Nouvelliste are regarded as decision makers, leaders, senior executives of lessons, corporate executives, managers, and professionals than among the young and educated to the extent that the newspaper is very present in schools and universities."(1)
