Combat

 

Daily paper published in Paris 1944-74, originally a clandestine news-sheet for the Resistance network of the same name. With Albert Camus as editor, it became a model of high journalistic standards, extending the ethos of the Resistance into post-war political life. In 1947 Camus resigned in the face of financial difficulties threatening the paper's editorial independence.

[David Walker]
