Le Matin (prev. known as Le Matin du Sahara et du Maghreb) is a daily francophone Saudi-owned Moroccan newspaper.[1] It was founded on 1 November 1971, as replacement of pro-colonial daily Le Petit Marocain, whose publisher Mas Presse was seized and given to the cousin of Hassan II and his minister of communication Moulay Hafid Alaoui.[2]
