Les anglais se moquent du manque de liberté de notre presse

En anglais sur BBC news, un article plein d'humour sur Nicolas et Cecilia. Le journaliste BBC ironise sur la quasi absence de commentaires sur le couple Sarkozy dans nos journaux, et sur les punitions qui pendent au nez des journalistes téméraires qui voudraient s'y essayer.

Il faut sans doute ajouter que, par exemple, Le Sun il y a 2 ans a publié une photo de Blair torse nu, ainsi qu'un dialogue entre lui et sa femme sur la frequence de leurs rapports sexuels.

"The editor of the magazine, Alain Genestar, lost his job - the result, most believe, of severe pressure from above. France's new president has been known to ring editors personally in fury when upset by coverage, and is said to have a long memory for journalistic slights.
Happily for relations between the French media and their new president, Cecilia returned to Mr Sarkozy's side a few months after the split, in January 2006. Only a few newspapers had reported his affair - during her absence - with a French political journalist.
Over the past month, there has been little coverage in the French media of Cecilia's on-off presence. Mr Sarkozy is a close friend of many of France's media barons.
In fact, this week Paris Match boasts a picture of the couple kissing on its front cover. "Cecilia shares in his victory," reads a sub-heading, followed by several pages of photographs of the presidential pair together on the night of his victory"
