The Parisian newspapers were largely stagnant after 1914. The major postwar success story was "Paris Soir"; which lacked any political agenda and was dedicated to providing a mix of sensational reporting to aid circulation, and serious articles to build prestige. By 1939, its circulation was over 1.7 million, double that of its nearest rival the tabloid "Le Petit Parisien". In addition to its daily paper "Paris Soir" sponsored a highly successful women's magazine "Marie-Claire". Another magazine "Match" was modeled after the photojournalism of the American magazine "Life."
