FRANCE: Freedom of the press



Carmen Negrin said "France has always been very liberal presswise". George Sassoon counters: "Surely France has very strict privacy laws? You can't photograph people and publish the pictures without their permission. You don't get much scandal in the French press as a result". RH: What about Le Canard Enchaîné? Plenty of scandal, but, as I recall, not many photographs.
