Groupe Nicolas

Before April 2011, when Groupe Nicolas removed "Lëtzebuerg" from all the media they publish, the newspaper was known as "Lëtzebuerg Privat". The publisher is the third biggest one in Luxembourg. It's the only publisher which is not a member of the "Conseil de Presse" and does not cooperate with the "Service d'Information et Presse". At the moment, the weekly newspaper Privat, the online newspaper LuxPrivat.lu, the web radio Radio-Privat, the web-TV Privat-TV, the paper about celebrities Promi and the satirical paper d'Wäschfra are part of the group.

On March 30, 2011, the group started a campaign called "Fir eng Fräi Press zu Lëtzebuerg! Géint Zensur!", which means as much as "For a free press in Luxembourg! Against Censorship!" [1]
