Paris mayor: We intend to sue Fox News
CNN ^ | January 20, 2015 | CNN

Posted on 01/20/2015 9:27:16 PM PST by Dallas59

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo told CNN Tuesday she intends to sue Fox News in the wake of the channel's coverage of supposed "no-go zones" for non-Muslims.

Hidalgo said the channel had "insulted" her city.

"When we're insulted, and when we've had an image, then I think we'll have to sue, I think we'll have to go to court, in order to have these words removed," Hidalgo told CNN's Christiane Amanpour. "The image of Paris has been prejudiced, and the honor of Paris has been prejudiced."

And they slaughtered the royal family during that blood-bath they call a revolution - for this?

Can you hear it? The muslims singing the French National anthem...in Arabic?

Le Monde called them “sink estates” among other things.

“. In London, however, all the no-go areas (such as the estates in Peckham before its regeneration, Harlesden and Gospel Oak) are sink estates.”

A 2004 article in a leftwing newspaper that calls them “sink estates”.

“As the number of immigrants and their descendants increases in a particular locality, more and more of its native French inhabitants leave for “calmer places”, thus making assimilation still more difficult. In some areas it is possible for an immigrant or his descendants to spend a whole life without ever encountering the need to speak French let alone familiarize himself with any aspect of the famous French culture. The result is often alienation. And that, in turn, gives radical Islamists an opportunity to propagate their message of religious and cultural apartheid. Some are even calling for the areas where Muslims form a majority of the population to be re-organized on the basis of the “millet” system that was in force in the Ottoman Empire. Under that system each religious community is regarded as “millet” and enjoys the right to organize its social, cultural and educational life in accordance with its religious beliefs. In some parts of France a de facto “millet” system is already in place. In these areas all women are obliged to wear the standardized Islamist “hijab” while most men grow their beards to the length prescribed by the sheikhs. The radicals have managed to chase away French shopkeepers selling wine and alcohol and pork products, forced “places of sin” such as dancing halls, cinemas and theaters to close down and, seized control of much of the local administration often through permeation.” Taheri, Amir. France’s Ticking Time Bomb, Arab News, November 5, 2005.

I guess if you make your ‘immigrants’ lots of promises you can’t, or never intended to keep, they are going to get angry. Whose idea was it to tell these people, who have nothing in common with the people they are expected to live amongst, that the taxpayer would feed, accommodate and clothe them?
And give them free health care...and education.

All the things we post WW2 migrants to Australia had to work for. We were promised nothing and expected nothing. My family lived in a wooden shack without electricity or plumbing for three years before we got on our feet.

France, like so many other nations has handed over its sovereignty while kissing the backside of the UN.

There are no HUMAN RIGHTS. You earn what you work for. Taxpayers throughout the world are becoming utterly sick of being the goose that’s expected to keep laying golden eggs.

I can imagine Reagan kicking this guys ass down a hallway with not one French witness having the stones to say what happened, for fear of the American wrath that would be brought down upon them.

For now it’s open season on America, Americans, and white Americans in general. Even though the crimes we’ve committed were long ago, and factors smaller than what the French have done to Europe many times. Prideful arrogant French have caused the world to burn before. In comes America to put out the fire. They must be so ashamed that some peasants have more bravery, will and fearlessness in their little toes then every proud Frenchman put together.

Ahh the city of degenerates fornicating in the park. The scent of garbage in your nostrils, the sight of refuse in your eyes. Dishonored?! I don’t think so.

Sounds like the paris mayor is pulling an obama-style gruberism.

obama denies the terrorists are Islamic.

the paris mayor denies there are no-good zones.

seth rogen denies he equated American Sniper to a Nazi propaganda film.

michael moore denies he was talking about Chris Kyle when he tweeted that snipers are cowards.

these unstable liars rely on the stupidity of their suicidal followers.

I do not understand why FNC would apologize

There is plenty of evidence that No Go Zones exist

including documentaries from French TV networks

Can a news organization be sued for what some guests say?
Can a news organization be sued when a retraction has been issued?
Can a news organization be sued when other organizations have said the same thing?
Can a news organization be sued for reporting the truth?

Well, a news organization can be gunned down during a staff meeting for mocking a false prophet, especially in Paris, of all places.

Perhaps the paris mayor would like to do the same to Fox News hq in Manhattan.

FNC should never have apologized. They should run these French documentaries with English subtitles.
