Le Monde is a French daily newspaper based in Paris, founded in 1944 and published by Groupe Le Monde. Its reporting centres on France and the United States, followed by Iran, Israel, Palestine and Ukraine, with politics and governance leading, and society a larger share than at most outlets. Its headlines are consistently critical of Donald Trump and the US administration, and neutral toward France.
Le Monde is critical of Donald Trump and the United States throughout, with evaluative vocabulary about his policies and quotes from critics, and at times hostile in its framing of Trump; the criticism targets the administration more than the country, and neutral business reports on US firms sit alongside it. France is covered neutrally, with critical distance toward the political class, and Emmanuel Macron reads neutral to respectful. Jeffrey Epstein is covered in a condemnatory frame. The stance is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
Based on headlines from January 2026 to August 2026.
Le Monde was founded in 1944 by Hubert Beuve-Méry and is published by Groupe Le Monde, a privately held French media group.
