The Sunday Thought (French reformed: L'Pensé d'Soledi) is a Gylian newspaper, founded in 1911. It is one of Gylias' oldest continuously published newspapers, and a major conservative paper.

History

It was established in 1911 in Alscia by Hildegard Riese. Hildegard served as its editor-in-chief for three decades, and played a key role in shaping its internal culture and position. A weekly newspaper, its title came from its publication day.

It quickly became Alscia's leading conservative newspaper. It reliably backed the Party of Freedom at elections, and was staunchly anti-Political Futurism; although critical of the Communist Party of Alscia, it nevertheless applauded its battles against the Futurist Party of Alscia, which it considered the bigger threat.

During the Liberation War, it supported the "constructive" current, and produced notably sympathetic coverage of the Nerveiík Kingdom. The newspaper's prestige earned it priority for paper rations under the Free Territories, and Hildegard and several of its contributors were included in the honoured citizens list.

After the war, it remained in the "constructive" camp, backing the Centre Group's struggle against the Conservative Coalition, and welcomed the latter's destruction and replacement with the National Bloc.

The 1990s saw it adopt new technology such as digital printing, establish its website, and digitise its archives through BiblioNet. It celebrated its centenary in 2011.

Profile

Its political orientation is conservatism, and it continues to uphold the Hannaist tradition, with a perspective informed by its Alscian heritage.

It publishes editions in English, French, and Italian.

Ownership and organisation

The Sunday Thought is owned and published by the Helios Cooperative, legally constituted as an SA. Its headquarters are in Caliste, Arxaþ.

The newspaper has a 5-member Management Board and a 10-member Supervisory Board, elected yearly.

Its revenue comes from newsagent's sales, paid subscriptions, online orders, and donations. Donors are listed at the end of each issue. It accepts classified advertising.
