Story angles

This event does not yet have its own comparison: here is the story's In France, appeals and criticisms against obstructions to the right to demonstrate.

Left-wing and center media highlight criticisms of counter-terrorism measures targeting protesters and the judicial decision disavowing them, while right-wing media emphasize the mobilization of the counter-terrorism arsenal to neutralize radical and violent profiles.

Centre

Explanation of how Micas work and emphasis on criticisms from lawyers, magistrates and NGOs denouncing the conflation of terrorism and activism, while reporting individual cases.

Common points

  • ≠The left and center cite criticisms from lawyers, magistrates and NGOs against the conflation of terrorism and activism, absent from right-wing coverage.
