[HIGHLIGHTS] “A” on Macron in Marseille: strike at the newspaper “La Provence” after the dismissal of the editorial director

The editorial director of the French regional daily La Provence was fired after an article deemed “ambiguous” by the newspaper. In response, journalists voted 79% on Friday March 22 for an indefinite strike.

The newspaper, owned by the shipowner CMA CGM, will not appear from Saturday March 23. “This is unacceptable editorial interference, we cannot let this happen,” reacted to AFP Audrey Letellier, union representative of the National Union of Journalists (SNJ)
