History

Maroc Hebdo was established in 1991[1] by Mohammed Selhami in Casablanca.[2] Mohammed Selhami also edited it.[3] In January 2005, it changed to the magazine format.[4]

The editorial stance of Maroc Hebdo is pro-government. In 2013 the magazine sold 6,265 copies.[5]

Controversies

In 2012, the magazine faced criticism for racism due to its cover titled "Le péril noir", featuring the face of a Sub-Saharan migrant.[6][7]

On 12 June 2015, it published an issue with a homophobic cover saying, "Shall we burn homosexuals?".[8] Due to ensuing global outrage at the incitement of hatred, all copies were recalled.[9]
