Re: Toulouse Killer: "Al Qaeda" (4.00 / 2)

Le Télégramme is a regional newspaper from Bretagne. How is it that they're the ones who managed to find this story, rather than national media or media local to Toulouse?

They say they are just reporting an interview of the neighbor in Le Parisien.
Here's the video:

That's the original interview with "Malika", but the Télégramme interview with the mother who filed the criminal complaint is billed as an exclusive.

Because sometimes, mere "regional papers" (and Ha'aretz and taz...) do a better "out of the box" job than the Paris-based "[supposedly] national press".
As for La Dépêche (Toulouse local paper), it is mostly useful for "dog bites man" type of stories.

Europeans think a hundred miles is a long way. Americans think a hundred years is a long time.
