Chiraq veut que la presse recule au pas de l'oie

Jean-François Copé, cabinet minister and government spokesman, hauled in the Paris correspondents of the international press to lecture them on how France and Paris are being portrayed during the riots. It's no longer fine wine and candy-ass cuisine, is it Copé? Instead, it's rioting Muslims and a clueless government. The correspondents didn't take the whole thing very seriously. Francisco Audije, correspondent for TVE (Spain) stating that it reminded him of the way that the Algerian government did things. Ouch! France is handling things like any North African military dictatorship. La Fwance est la risée du monde entier.
