History of the Petit Journal

The small newspaper, is a republican and conservative Parisian daily, founded by Moïse Pollydore Millaud, which appeared from 1863 to 1944.

It is at the ankle between the 19th and 20th centuries and until the First   War World, one of the four largest French daily newspapers, along with Le Petit Parisien, Le Matin, and Le journal.

It draws a million copies in 1890, in the midst of the Boulangist crisis.

Collaborated with the Petit Journal / Albert Londres, René Hachette, Raymond Patenôtre, Saint-Paulien Victor , Daniel-Rops, Roger Vercel, Stephen Pichon or Maxence Van der Meersch.

The founder of the title and Moïse Millaud, from a Jewish family in Bordeaux, he started in business and press affairs from the July monarchy with financial or judicial publications. In 1856, he bought La Presse de Girardin, but his failure made him understand that this formula, new twenty years earlier, was now outdated.

He entrusted its management to his nephew Alphonse (born June 11, 1829 in Mouries), son of his brother Joseph.

the Small Diary attracts many readers because the transition from "sheet printing" to printing in rotary allows it to be cheap: it costs only 5 cents instead of 15 cents for ordinary newspapers. It has a convenient format (43 × 30 cm), smaller than its competitors hence its name, is accessible to all (no subscription), and offers, alongside national and international information, entertaining content including miscellaneous , soap operas , horoscopes and chronicles . Journal declaring itself apolitical - even if this is not quite the case - it is exempt from stamp . It is furthermore a evening newspaper , sold by criers at the exit of factories and workshops. It is the emblem of a new form of journalism which is developing, that of small press .

The small newspaper in fact sees his sales increase considerably when he begins to publish the report of extraordinary news items, such as the Troppmann case , in September 1869. All of Paris rushes to Puppet , where we have just discovered seven corpses belonging to the same family. Around the pit, we set up a carnival. Faced with the emotion aroused by this killing, Alphonse Millaud , boss of Small Diary , decides to cover the story extensively. Immediately, the whole country is passionate about this odiously massacred family. The police arrest a certain Jean-Baptiste Troppman , as he tried to board for the Americas. He has on him the papers and jewels of the unfortunate family. For Millaud, the Troppmann affair turned out to be a gold mine: the circulation of the newspaper thus went from 200,000 copies per day to 300,000, then to 500,000! This exploitation of news items then becomes the editorial strategy of the newspaper, on which many historians will pass severe judgment,

After 1900, print runs began to stagnate and then to decrease: The Little Parisian , better managed and which avoids taking sides in the Dreyfus Affair , becomes the largest French newspaper. Ernest Judet (1851-1943) square The small newspaper in the anti-Dreyfusard party and rallied him to the nationalist cause. In 1914, The small newspaper now only prints 850,000 copies, and its circulation drops to 400,000 in 1919. After the war, a good number of its readers, disconcerted or shocked by the newspaper's commitment to the anti-Dreyfusard party, then read about a competitor who crossed the bar of two million copies and became the king of the small press: The Little Parisian .

Despite successive sponsorships from cross-eyed , then Patenoster , the decline was accentuated in the interwar period. In 1937, it only printed 150,000 copies, when on July 14 it became the organ of the French social party (PSF) of Colonel de La Rocque, but his hearing did not improve. The motto of the PSF, " Work, Family, Country ”, borrowed from Cross of Fire and taken over later, in 1940, by the French State , therefore appears on the banner of the daily newspaper, to the left of the title. La Rocque was director of the newspaper and chairman of its board of directors in April 1938 7 , until his arrest in Mars 1943.

Folded back to Clermont Ferrand in June 1940, the Small Diary lived there, mediocrely, until August 1944 when he disappeared completely; during this period, he received a monthly grant from the Vichy government ; its board of directors was then chaired by Colonel de La Rocque. Academicians collaborate until the last issue: Louis Madelin , Jerome Tharaud and his brother, Gabriel Hanotaux , Henry Bordeaux , Auguste de LaForce . As well as writers like Henry Pourrat , Roger Vercel , Daniel Rops .

The newspaper and the vice-president of its board of directors, André Portier (the president, La Rocque, having died in 1946), were judged in 1948 by the court of the Seine , for having continued to appear under the Occupation and under the accusation of intelligence with the enemy. The lawyers argued that La Rocque provided information to the Intelligence Service, which led to him being deported. The court rendered a judgment of acquittal.
