Getting up ahead of America

Getting up ahead of America

No European country has so far sought to capitalize on the fact that its professional workforce rises many hours ahead of most people in the US. In the US, we rely on those inveterate souls who work through the evening and some work through the night to bring us the news of the day when we awake.

Why could not Monaco become a place that tells the world's story to people all over the US using people to do this who get to work early, but not in the middle of the night? It could be marketed in this way: "Look to Monaco for your earliest news of the rest of the world.

Note how the ANSA news agency in Italy has chosen to do essentially this sort of thing for the entire Mediterranean basin with their ANSAMed service. That said, look again at this English verison, and you will not find Monaco even listed!
