MEDIAWATCH - Leonarda deportation: case closed?

  • 11 years ago
We take a look at François Hollande's attempt this past weekend to resolve the controversy over the deportation of a Roma schoolgirl, Leonarda. Both the right- and left-wing press are dissatisfied with the president's response. However for Interior Minister Manuel Valls, the media is itself to blame for the controversy by giving the teenage girl so much airtime. Elsewhere: a controversial YouTube video of a French radio DJ using his charm on the ladies, and a Twitter "Fail" by Herman Van Rompuy.
