Press Review

PRESS REVIEW – Monday, 5 January 2025: Venezuelan papers react to Nicolas Maduro's abduction, while the South American press is outraged. Meanwhile, in Germany, an arson attack by an extreme-left group has left thousands without power. Next, Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok has been producing thousands of non-consensual pornographic images. Finally, the Swiss press celebrate a milestone.

The abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has sent shockwaves through the press. Venezuela News focuses on Delcy Rodriguez, now Venezuela's president by interim, and cites her as saying that "the priority is to establish a balanced and respectful relationship between Venezuela and the US". El Nacional calls on the Venezuelan people to resist American interference, comparing Maduro's Venezuela to the France of Charles de Gaulle. Opposition paper TalCual discusses Edmundo Gonzales Urrutia, the opposition candidate in the 2024 presidential election, who urged the government to release political opponents, whom he calls "regime hostages".

In neighbouring Colombia, El Espectador says that Trump is not Venezuela's saviour. In Brazil, Folha de Sao Paulo says that this intervention looks a lot like the Iraq disaster. Cuban daily Granma condemns the "cowardly attack" of the US against their "sister nation". 

Over in Berlin, an arson attack over the weekend has caused widespread power cuts and chaos. The attack is on the front page of the Frankfurter Allgemeine and the Tagesspiegel, which dedicates two pages to the story. Der Spiegel looks at what makes the repairs so complicated. The Berliner Morgenpost says that 45,000 households were initially affected by the power outage. As of Sunday evening, more than 10,000 households had been reconnected.  

Meanwhile, AI has been wreaking havoc on the internet over the weekend. The Atlantic takes a look at what it calls "Elon Musk's pornography machine". A Grok update meant that people were able to generate non-consensual pornographic images, even of young children.

The Washington Post talks about another consequence of AI chatbots: dangerous delusions. The Human Line community is a new online messaging platform designed for people to talk about their AI-linked mental health issues with other humans.  

Finally, it has been a tough few days for the Swiss press, but this Monday, they have something to celebrate. The Geneva-based newspaper Le Temps is celebrating its 200th anniversary.

PRESS REVIEW – Friday, January 2: Several front pages headline on the tragic Swiss bar fire which killed dozens on New Year's Day. It's been described as the worst accident in recent Swiss history. In other news: the New Year brings new additions to the public domain, as cartoon Betty Boop, literary sleuth Nancy Drew and the 1930 film "All Quiet on the Western Front" all become copyright-free this year. Plus: we bring you some new travel trends for 2026.

The tragedy in Switzerland is dominating the front pages. A fire ripped through a bar during New Year’s celebrations in Crans Montana, a popular ski resort, early on New Year's Day. At least 40 people have died and many more are seriously injured. Several victims were young revellers. La Regione, an Italian-language Swiss daily, says the "reasons for this massacre of young people are still not known." Swiss investigators say that they are still looking into what caused the fire. Le Soir, the Belgian paper calls it the "New Year of horror" and notes that the "shock is immense". Switzerland has declared five days of national mourning. The paper's three-page coverage describes terrible scenes of chaos and quotes an eyewitness who said that candles in champagne bottles may have sparked a ceiling fire, which then spread very quickly.

"From party to nightmare", the French paper Libération says on its front page. This is not the first deadly bar fire potentially caused by fireworks, which is something that Swiss news website 24 Heures and Australian website Sydney Morning Herald are looking at. Pyrotechnics have been the source of other deadly fires – including a fire that killed dozens in Goa last month and the deadly Pulse club fire in North Macedonia in March that killed 63 people.

Turning to other news: the new year also means new additions to the public domain, as the 95-year time US copyright restriction on intellectual property frees up new works each year. It means that cultural works dating from 1930 enter the public domain – their image can be used for free. This year brings some notable additions, according to the US broadcaster PBS. Cartoon character Betty Boop becomes copyright free as four of her cartoons enter the public domain this year. PBS explains that she started out as the female sidekick dog to a character called Bimbo. But she eventually outshone Bimbo and morphed into the Jazz Age flapper with the groomed curls and flashy eyelashes for which she is best known. Other works entering the public domain are Mildred Benson's teen sleuth Nancy Drew, as her first four books appeared in 1930; Dashiell Hammett’s Sam Spade in "The Maltese Falcon" and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, who solved her first mystery in "Murder at the Vicarage". Elsewhere, the Oscar-winning film "All Quiet on the Western Front" and the song "Dream a Little Dream of Me" also enter the public domain.

Finally, we look at some new travel trends for the new year. According to the Indian Express, you can expect to see a continuation of micro-trips – travelling to nearby places, spending the day sightseeing and returning home at night. This year could also see more "glowcations": travelling for the specific purpose of beauty treatments – to Korea for K beauty treatments or India for Ayurvedic ones, for example. There will be more slow travel too: travelling for the purpose of doing absolutely nothing. Le Parisien offers another travel trend for 2026: supermarket safaris – travelling for the purpose of discovering local supermarkets and with it, local culinary habits!

PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, January 1: Zohran Mamdani is sworn in as mayor of New York City ahead of his public ceremony. The press look at the challenges that lie ahead for the maverick mayor. Also: France will mull an Australia-style social media ban on teenagers this month. Plus we look at 2026 life predictions and 2025 trends that will become embarrassing this year!

Zohran Mamdani has been officially sworn in as mayor of New York City in a private ceremony held at midnight New York time. Mamdani's appointment comes with a lot of firsts: he is the city's first South Asian, millennial and Muslim mayor. His ceremony will also be the first to include the Koran. The New York Times notes he’s expected to use several unique Korans, including one that belonged to his grandfather and another that belonged to Arturo Schomburg, a Black writer and historian. Once the pomp and ceremony is over, Mamdani will face many challenges as mayor. Jacobin, a New York-based socialist magazine, says that he will have to raise taxes to fund promised programmes like universal childcare and transport. For this, he’ll need the support of Governor Kathy Hochul, who has previously said she will oppose said tax increases.

Here in France, President Emmanuel Macron has delivered his New Year’s speech and laid out his plans for 2026. Among them, French lawmakers have put forward a draft bill to follow in Australia's footsteps and ban social media access for teenagers. The Guardian notes that the bill cites the risks of excessive screen use by teenagers – including being exposed to inappropriate content, sleep issues and online bullying. The proposed legislation would ban social media for under-15s and ban mobile phones in high schools, affecting teens between 15 to 18 years old. Le Monde reports that the legislation will be debated this month, but only after it passes the legal review from the Council of State, France's highest administrative authority.

Finally, the new year also brings new trends, something a lot of the press is talking about. The New York Times looks at life predictions for 2026. It predicts we will return to "dumb phones" – with these old phones becoming a new status symbol. When it comes to dating, 2026 will no longer be about playing it cool – instead, embracing the risks of romance and declaring your love for that special person! The paper also predicts that we'll see a return to tobacco pipes in an apparent rebellion against "clumsy, charmless" vapes – but also in a desperate desire for "Dickensian glamour". Another trend we're expected to see this year: the "exfluencer" – the slow decline of influencers, who will seek more traditional careers. The Independent, meanwhile, looks at 2025 trends that will become embarrassing in 2026. These include: confessing to using ChatGPT for something you could have Googled yourself; giant water bottles that weigh the size of an infant; and (hopefully) Labubus!

PRESS REVIEW – Friday, December 19: A new batch of Epstein files includes photos of famous men, chat screenshots and "Lolita" quotes written on a woman's body. Next, Kristin Cabot, the HR boss caught on the Coldplay kiss cam, speaks out in an exclusive interview. Finally, we bring you some Christmas news in data format.

Papers are reacting to the latest release of a new batch of the  Epstein files. Wired Magazine calls the photos "terrifying". They include famous men, passports, chat screenshots and upsetting "Lolita" quotes written on a woman's body. The Daily Beast puts the spotlight on a New York Times columnist, David Brooks, who appeared in the photos. In November, he wrote an opinion piece entitled "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out". That article bashed Democrats for releasing information and the "QAnon mentality that has taken over America". In it, Brooks criticised America's "obsession" with the Epstein story, asking why this story needs to be a top issue. The opinion piece did not age well.

Vanity Fair has an article entitled "New Epstein Pictures, Same Old Greasy, Tired Gluttony on Display". The magazine says the newest photos are "some of the most disturbing ones yet", and they give us a clearer view of Epstein's life after his 2008 sex crimes conviction. The New York Times focuses on the friendship between Trump and Epstein. The paper says the two men "bonded over the pursuit of women" and that "chasing women was a game of ego and dominance" where female bodies were a "currency". The long article follows their "intense bond" and how it evolved over the years. 

Next, Kristin Cabot, the woman caught on the Coldplay kiss cam, has given an exclusive interview to The Times. The HR manager was caught cosying up to her married boss during a Coldplay concert, and the video went viral. She speaks about the 16 seconds that "ruined her life". Cabot says that both she and Andy Byron were at the time "amicably separated from their spouses", and they went on a date after bonding over their separation. She was then "on top of the world”, dancing and singing, before the kiss cam caught her with Byron. The rest is social media history.

Finally, we bring you some Christmas data news. Euronews answers the question of which European country spends the most on presents. Germany is the biggest spender in the European Union, with expenses expected to reach more than €85 billion. Next is France, with €71 billion. Outside of the EU, but with more than €100 billion, the UK is really feeling the Christmas spirit!

In more data news from CNN, Mariah Carey's seasonal hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You" has been dethroned by the 1984 single "Last Christmas". Perhaps love is not in the air this season.

PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, December 18: French paper Le Monde reveals who was behind the viral AI fake news video that announced a coup in France. Next, some good news: a mama polar bear adopts a cub in a rare case of polar bear bonding. Also: the new season of Emily in Paris is out and we calculate exactly how much it would cost to live like Emily. Finally, we do an art quiz with our presenter.

French paper Le Monde has tracked down the author of the viral AI video that falsely announced a coup in France. It was created by a teenager from Burkina Faso who just wanted to "make it big". He certainly succeeded, since the video has been watched more than 13 million times. The anonymous teenager said he "posted it just like that" and he was "amazed" when he saw the views, adding that he didn’t think the video would “cause such a stir". He also sincerely apologised and said his message was by no means political. 

Speaking of tech-savvy people, an article in Wired Magazine reports that "People are paying to get their chatbots high on drugs". It works through a code plugged into ChatGPT, for instance, that simulates the effects of weed, ketamine, cocaine, etc. It’s an idea by the Swedish creative director Peter Rudwall, who took data from research on the effects of substances and wrote a code with it.

Next, in some good news, The Guardian reports that a female polar bear has adopted a cub. Scientists in Canada documented the rare case, highlighting the complex relationships of polar bears. A researcher commented that "polar bears are really good mums" and if they see a lost cub, "they just can’t help themselves", but take the baby bear and look after it. 

The new season of "Emily in Paris" is out this Thursday. The French edition of Vanity Fair asks the question of how much money we should make per year if we want to live like Emily Cooper. She has a pretty nice wardrobe collection, with brands like Chanel and Hermès, which would be €65,000 per year. Emily also eats out all the time, takes taxis and drinks fancy cocktails, so that would be around €6,000 extra. Her apartment in central Paris surely costs more than €30,000 per year. Vanity Fair did the maths: Emily's life costs more than €100,000 euros year. In real life, a marketing expert in Paris like her makes around €40,000 per year. 

Finally, an exhibition in Spain puts art lovers to the test by mixing Neolithic pieces with modern works, as The Times reports. We tested our presenter on his knowledge.

PRESS REVIEW – Wednesday, 17 December 2025: Vanity Fair's interview of Susan Wiles makes headlines across the United States. Next, The New York Times investigates Jeffrey Epstein's wealth and career. Elsewhere, Kylian Mbappé has won a court case against his former club Paris Saint-Germain. Finally, Christmas elves hit the jackpot. 

A bombshell interview is rocking the press in the United States. Vanity Fair has published a series of 11 interviews it carried out over the course of a year with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. The quote which got the most attention is in a CNN headline: "Wiles says Trump has an alcoholic's personality". The New York Times focuses on another part of the interviews and discusses Wiles calling JD Vance a conspiracy theorist. Politico looks at Republican reactions to the Vanity Fair piece. The New York Post has an exclusive interview with Trump on the subject, who says that Wiles was right to say he had an alcoholic's personality. Fox News accuses the piece of using quotes out of context.  

The New York Times has published an investigation which looks at how Jeffrey Epstein made his millions: with scams, schemes and cons.  

Les Bleus superstar Kylian Mbappé is also making headlines. The Financial Times has Mbappé celebrating on its front page. He has good reason to, since the striker has won his court battle against his former club PSG. According to Le Parisien, it is a total success for the now Real Madrid star. His lawyers said that Paris Saint Germain's president had acted out because of his hurt pride after the Frenchman left the club.

Mbappé is not the only person celebrating a big pay day. The Times of London reports that Father Christmas's elves have seen their wages increase by 7.6 percent this year.

PRESS REVIEW – Tuesday, December 16: French President Emmanuel Macron is visiting Marseille to discuss the fight against drugs, one month after the murder of Mehdi Kessaci, the brother of a well-known anti-drug crime activist. Staying on the topic, a deadly new drug is spreading in Philadelphia. Also: polar bears are mutating to adapt to climate change. Finally, French burglars take a coffee break in the middle of their robbery. Plus, The New York Times shares "The 52 Best Breakup Lines". 

Emmanuel Macron is visiting the southern French city of Marseille, where he will discuss security and the fight against drug trafficking. Marseille is known as a hotspot for drug-related crimes. The French president's visit comes one month after drug criminals killed Mehdi Kessaci, the brother of Amine Kessaci. Amine is on the front page of Libération. He is a leading figure in the fight against drug trafficking in Marseille. The French left-wing paper traces the journey of the 22-year-old environmental activist, who became an "anti-drug crusader" after the death of his half-brother and one of his friends in 2020. Both of them were found burned to death in a car, victims of a drug-related settling of scores. Today, Amine is demanding more crime prevention, the return of community policing and more access to public services. Libération wonders whether his demands will be "heard" by Macron. The newspaper denounces the "punitive approach" to the fight against drug trafficking and says that it has proven ineffective in the long term. 

Staying on the topic of drugs, a new deadly narcotic called medetomidine is spreading in the United States. The New York Times reports that it's a veterinary sedative mixed with fentanyl that's "creating a life-threatening withdrawal crisis in Philadelphia" and spreading to other cities too. The paper interviewed an addict who said that the withdrawal he experienced with the new drug was "terrifyingly all-consuming". The powerful sedative causes almost instant blackouts, and if not used every few hours, it causes extreme withdrawal symptoms, such as vomiting, tremours and a very high heart rate and blood pressure.

Elsewhere, polar bears are mutating to adapt to climate change, as Geo Magazine reports. According to scientists, polar bears are undergoing "fundamental genetic changes" in a desperate attempt to adapt to the climate crisis. Two-thirds of polar bears are predicted to become extinct by 2050 – perhaps even totally extinct by the end of the century. But thanks to mutations in their DNA, in the so-called "jumping genes", bears could mutate to better deal with heat stress and adapt to plant-based diets found in warmer regions. It's a beacon of hope for the Arctic mammals. 

Finally, an unusual crime story is making headlines in France. Franceinfo reports that two burglars, who were seemingly "quite relaxed", took a coffee break in a local café in the middle of their robbery. 

Plus: The New York Times has collected some of the most memorable breakup lines, including "It's not me – It's 100% about you".

PRESS REVIEW – Monday, December 15: Australian and Israeli papers discuss the "bloodshed" of the Bondi Beach terror attack. Next, French papers write about the "agricultural revolt" of farmers. Finally: a sausage-dog walk in London's Hyde Park sparks the festive spirit.

The Australian papers are reacting to the Bondi Beach terror attack, in which 15 people were killed on Sunday. "Massacre of Jews", reads the headline of The Australian. An opinion piece in the paper says that "Australia is no longer safe for Jews". The conservative Daily Telegraph rails against the "bastards" responsible for the massacre: on the front page, we see Naveed Akram, one of the two gunmen, whose father was shot dead by police. "Bondi Terror", writes The Sydney Morning Herald, saying people woke to the "bloodshed of the massacre". In an opinion piece, a bystander who was 100 metres away describes the chaos and hearing the gunshots, saying it felt "surreal" and that "it has changed Sydney forever".

There are also many opinion pieces in the Israeli press. The right-wing Jerusalem Post writes that if there is a Nobel Prize for saving Jews, "Ahmed al Ahmed just won it" – that's the bystander who disarmed one of the shooters. The paper says that heroism does not belong to a particular people or faith, noting that Ahmed is not Jewish. The paper writes that there is "something profoundly Hanukkah about that moment". The left-wing paper Haaretz says that Israel shouldn't exploit the pain following the massacre, adding that the country's "choice of words, especially today, matters". Exploiting the pain would only achieve the goal of the shooters: to instil fear in the Jewish community worldwide.

The Guardian has an analysis of Australia's "gold standard" gun control. For almost three decades, the country has had some of the strictest gun laws in the world. The country felt relatively safe from gun violence, says the paper, but the massacre "will shake this confidence". One of the shooters was a registered gun owner and had six legal firearms. 

Here in France, farmers have been protesting against the slaughter of cows infected with what's known as lumpy skin disease. French paper La Croix calls it "The return of the agricultural revolt". French Agriculture Minister Annie Genevard will travel to southwestern France on Monday to attend the start of the vaccination campaign. "Contagious peasant anger", reads the front page of French Communist paper L'Humanité. The paper says that the memory of the 2024 farmers' protests is still fresh, and that structural problems persist. Throughout the weekend, we saw images of paralysed highways, exhausted farmers and clashes with the police, bringing back vivid memories of the 2024 "farmer revolt". 

Finally, London welcomes the festive spirit with a Christmas-special sausage dog parade in Hyde Park, as reported in The Guardian.

PRESS REVIEW – Friday, December 12: A US defence news website reports on leaks from the National Security Strategy, which reveal how the Trump administration is trying to pull four EU nations away from the bloc. Also: World Darts champion Luke Littler begins his campaign to defend his title. Plus: French video game "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33" wins big at the Games Awards and becomes a symbol of French success. 

The Trump administration hopes to persuade four EU countries to leave the bloc, according to leaks reported by the US website Defense One. The site, which reports on US defence news, leaked details from the classified US National Security Strategy. It reports that Trump would like to "Make Europe Great Again" by focusing US relationships on four nations: the like-minded right-wing governments of Austria, Hungary, Italy and Poland. The goal would be to pull them away from the EU or encourage a UK-style exit. As the Times of London elaborates, the report also revealed Trump's desire to create a Core 5, or C5 group made up of the US, China, Russia, India and Japan. The group would hold regular summits with the first order of business being to normalise relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. The Times notes that the White House has denied the existence of any classified version. John Crace for the Guardian writes that Trump's threats to "destabilise European democracies, support far right nationalists, withdraw from NATO and support Russia" constitute a moment of "existential crisis for Europe." He adds: "It’s time to wake up because when the US president says this stuff, you had better believe him."

The Times of London also looks at how Trump's MAGA allies have been courting the European far right. This week, a delegation of 20 MPs from the far-right German AfD party travelled to the US, while their foreign policy spokesman is on good terms with Moscow. The Times says Europe fears that drink parties with Russia and scathing criticism of centrist governments could morph into "Cold War-esque interferences across the continent." The Wall Street Journal’s editors argue that Washington could have a positive influence on Europe – Trump's demand for more defence spending could spearhead welfare reforms. However, courting the European far right could ironically be counterproductive, it warns: "They are of instinctively anti-American" and "anti-economic reform."

In sports news, British darts world champion Luke Littler has begun his campaign to defend his title. Luke "The Nuke" Littler shook off first-night nerves and beat his Lithuanian rival in straight sets on the opening night of the 2025-26 edition in London. Littler, 18, became the youngest ever darts world champion this year. "Littler is buzzing," the Daily Mirror says. "Hot lips Luke in a pucker start", the Daily Star says, referring to his big smooch with his girlfriend after that match.

We end with a French triumph at the Oscars of video games. Le Figaro reports that "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33" won big at the Games Awards in Los Angeles on Thursday. It picked up nine awards, including video game of the year. Le Figaro evokes its "historic success" – it is the first French video game to win game of the year. It's certainly a French success story for Sandfall Interactive, the tiny Montpellier studio of about 30 people which produced the game that has since sold more than 2 million copies. The Guardian explains that it started out as a side hustle for developer Guillaume Broche while he was working at Ubisoft. The narrative-driven roleplaying game offers a "unique world, challenging combat and music" set against the Lumières period. Broche says he worked eight hours a day on the game while working full-time. Le Monde notes that the game also seduced players because it leans into its Frenchness, a strategy that up until now was reserved mainly for indie video games.

PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, December 11: Italy's culinary traditions are added to UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage list. It's the first country to receive the honour, much to the joy of the Italian press. Also: The New York Times publishes an investigation into how Andrew Tate and his brother courted the Trump administration, leading to their release from a Romanian prison earlier this year. Plus: after FOMO and JOMO, do you know what FOFO is? 

Italian cuisine traditions have been named a part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage, much to the joy of the Italian press. It's the first country in the world to receive the accolade, as Il Messaggero declares proudly on its front page. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni was there to light up the Colosseum in Italy's colours for the occasion. La Repubblica says: "If carbonara had legs, it would be jumping for joy today." The daily notes that this recognition is of Italian culinary traditions – such as Sunday lunch, ragu simmering for hours, the white tablecloth, the hand that passes the bread but not the salt because it's bad luck. Not everyone is happy about the accolade, though. Domani sees the listing as a good thing, but says it's a missed opportunity. The cuisine that is recognised by UNESCO is a cuisine that "never existed", it writes – a postcard ideal. The real Italian cuisine, it adds, "lies in a history of poverty, improvisation, reinvention and immigration." Here in France, the investigative website Mediapart sees the recognition as being a political weapon for the Meloni government, in a bid to create a sort of gastro-nationalism.

The Moroccan caftan has also been added to UNESCO's list, and this is dominating headlines there. Moroccan website Le 360 gloats over the fact that Morocco is recognised for the caftan and not its neighbour Algeria – a source of common dispute. It accuses the Algerian team of trying yet another manoeuvre to counter Morocco's candidacy. The website adds smugly that Algeria have literally been ridiculed.

The New York Times looks at how manosphere influencers Andrew Tate and his brother were freed and brought to the US, thanks in part to the Trump administration. Tate and his brother Tristan were imprisoned in Romania with a ban on leaving the country in January this year. They were held up on rape charges, having sex with a minor and coercing women into pornography. Then in February, the Romanian government set the brothers free. Their release was the culmination of a "yearslong effort to forge alliances with Trump's advisers and family members, including his son Barron." The Australian website The Conversation also looks at the manosphere and how it has become a lucrative business. Far from a niche platform, the manosphere is well and truly in the mainstream. The thought leaders maintain and grow their audiences by getting them to buy their products – for instance, subscription-based academies that cost thousands of dollars, or testosterone supplements.

Next, you've probably heard of FOMO (fear of missing out) and JOMO (joy of missing out), but do you know FOFO? As the Huffington Post explains, it is a fear of finding out. Think of it as a letter from the taxman that you haven't opened or that medical scan you keep delaying. If you experience this, you might have FOFO, a fear of finding out – or delaying bad news.

Perhaps there is a term for the joy of mixing up. It was the case for one little boy in Wales last week. Good News Network reports that Oscar Wilkins got the role of Elvis the Elf in his school concert… except he told his parents that the role was just Elvis. His parents found him an Elvis outfit, which he rocked at the concert. Despite the comedy of errors, he embraced his role wholeheartedly!
