I would consider this to be a big story. I have seen no coverage of it other than here.
Update (sounds like the French authorities are in serious denial):
French unrest spreads outside Paris
Staff and agencies
Friday November 4, 2005
A disabled person was badly burned in an attack on a city bus and more than four hundred cars were torched during an eighth night of rioting in Paris suburbs.
Government officials cited a falling number of direct clashes with police to claim that the situation was becoming calmer, but the violence also spread out of the capital's immediate vicinity.
Reports of unrest surfaced in Rouen in Normandy, Dijon in Burgundy and the Mediterranean port of Marseille. A bus depot was set on fire to the west of Paris in the town of Trappes, near Versailles, destroying 27 buses.
An amateur video aired on television showed them all in a row and in flames.
Gerard Gaudron, mayor of Aulnay-sous-Bois, one of the worst-hit suburbs, insisted "the peak is now behind us" but in the low-income estates on the edge of Paris the mayhem continued.
In Seine-Saint-Denis, the department between central Paris and Charles de Gaulle airport, arson attacks destroyed 187 vehicles and five buildings. Two commuter trains to the airport also came under attack........

My guess is the media will not be reporting about secret cells in Canada and the truth about such as Paris and its rioters.
To tell all the facts would be to admit that the war in Iraq had a reason for being fought.
The USA radio news is on now, at 2:00 pm my time, it said that 200 fires were set on fire in last night, the 8th night of rioting in Paris. end of story.
Then went to a denial of the danger of bird flu.
That is the news, guess it is all we need to know.
Wake up America.
