Entreleslignes.be

http://www.entreleslignes.be/

The objective of Entreleslignes.be is to "devote time to forgotten subjects ... and invite to wander between the lines of information". Furthermore, it seeks to amplify citizens' perspectives and movements to achieve a more egalitarian society. It encourages diversity of opinions and open discussions (in the section Cercle des Penseurs Libres) and plans meetings and activities.

The media outlet was founded by Jean-Frédéric Hanssens at the time of his early retirement, following a career at Le Soir newspaper. He and some retired journalists created a digital site to continue writing without financial obligations. The information on the site is free, and no advertising is allowed.

Entreleslignes.be is a member of the Association of Belgian Independent Pure Players (ABiPP asbl), uniting approximately 12 French-speaking digital native media outlets in Belgium. The organisation seeks to maximise members' impact and readership and vouches for governmental funds to support digital native media. It is also a member of Tribu Médias, a media page aggregating the content of five French-speaking digital media outlets to give them more exposure.

The articles published on Entreleslignes.be are included in a weekly newsletter sent out every Saturday, where the audience (people between 40 and 80 years old) can find a summary of the information published during the week.

The magazine lacks young contributors because of the limited revenue the organisation has been able to gather; as a result, its audience does not include people under 40.
