French Government Plan To 'Label' News Outlets Backfires Spectacularly
Via Remix News,
A few weeks back, French President Emmanuel Macron announced a new “media labeling” system, while also assuring citizens that this “media accreditation” will not include any sort of state-backed labeling.

France's right-wing press has reacted with outrage, with Vincent Bolloré's Journal du Dimanche denouncing Macron's “totalitarian drift” on free speech and warning of “th...
