The International Herald Tribune (IHT) was a daily English-language newspaper published in Paris, France, for international English-speaking readers. It had the aim of becoming "the world's first global newspaper" and could fairly be said to have met that goal.[2] It published under the name International Herald Tribune starting in 1967, but its origins as an international newspaper trace back to 1887.[3] Sold in over 160 countries, the International Herald Tribune was an innovative newspaper that continued to produce a large amount of unique content until it became the second incarnation of The International New York Times in 2013, 10 years after The New York Times Company became its sole owner.[4]
