We have had a nice little newsstand/shop closest to our home in Nice. They sold a huge array of magazines, all of the national French papers and many from other countries.
It is in the process of changing owners and changing more. They have stopped selling overseas newspapers for the moment and all magazines. The only paper available there is the local Nice Matin. Instead of the magazines, the shelves have lettuce, artichokes and those sorts of things on offer.
The current owners are very unhappy about how this has evolved; in their case, they wanted to stay but could not.
In mid April, they are supposed to start selling more newspapers again, but one will have to wait to see if this happens.
It is sad to see so many newspaepr and printed publications points of sale disappearing so very fast here.
