French Journalists Suppress Riot Coverage for Fear of Right
Frightened that reality might encourage support for right-wing views, the French media are doing their best to suppress it. MediaGuardian reports that public station France 3 has stopped reporting how many cars have gone up in flames as a result of Muslim rioting, and other stations are thinking of following suit. Jean-Claude Dassier, director general of the news service TCI, reports that his channel recently decided not to show footage of burning cars, because:
Politics in France is heading to the right and I don't want rightwing politicians back in second, or even first place because we showed burning cars on television.
Their culture is about one generation away from being extinguished by Islam, and they're worried about right-wing politicians. Some elements on the European right are admittedly unpleasant, but the same goes for the left. Given a choice between Muslims and skinheads, it should be obvious even to a journalist who is the greater threat to French civilization.

At least they're upfront about it, unlike our very own MSM.

They certainly are taking their impending dhimmitude well, aren't they? At least they won't have that damned freedom to worry about anymore, and they will be spared having to eat at McDonald's.
