In a world where the virtual seems to have overtaken the printed, Morocco’s print journalism survives, challenging a long-held belief that newspapers are dying.

Dozens of print newspapers and magazines are still Moroccans’ most preferred sources of news. and can be found on stands all over the country on a daily basis.
