Aujourd'hui (French pronunciation: [oʒuʁdɥi] ⓘ, Today) was a daily newspaper in Vichy France published between 1940 and 1944 in Paris. It was founded by journalist Henri Jeanson,[1] who edited the publication during the autumn of 1940.[2] After Jeanson was arrested and forced out as editor for not being sufficiently pro-Vichy, he was replaced by managing editor Georges Suarez, who four years later became the first public figure in post-liberation France to be tried for treason and executed as a collaborationist.[3][4][5]
