France Soir (English: France Evening) was a French newspaper that prospered in physical format during the 1950s and 1960s, reaching a circulation of 1.5 million in the 1950s. It declined rapidly under various owners and was relaunched as a populist tabloid in 2006. However, the company went bankrupt on 23 July 2012, before re-emerging as an online-only media in 2016. During the coronavirus pandemic it published many false claims and conspiracy theories about the disease and in 2020, according to NewsGuard, this media "fails to adhere to several basic journalistic standards".
