Philippe Tesson intended for it to be the successor to the daily newspaper "Combat", of which he had been the editor-in-chief between 1960 and 1964. "Combat" included articles and editorials from a variety of opinions, as well
as an in-depth coverage of cultural events in Paris. The survival of "Le Quotidien de Paris" during the 1980s and '90s was largely due to the success of another paper from the same publishing group, "Le Quotidien du Médecin", which was run by Tesson's wife, Marie-Claude Tesson-Millet. In 1991 it distributed 35,000 newspapers across France. Its last issue appeared in 1996.
