France 24

"Ibn Rushd" sent me this:  "In 2007, Sarko appointed Christine Ockrent as director of France 24. She's the wife of former foreign minister Kouchner, they're very pro-Israel and he supported the Iraq War.  Ockrent fired a lot of good journalists. For the Arabic Station, she appointed Lebanese journalist Nahida Nakad and thee were a lot of internal protests.  Ockrent later had to quit after it turned out she (was accused of spying) on employees.  I think france 24 remains very disorganized and messy, and this is as much of a problem as the ideology.  They rely extensively on young poorly paid journalists and legions of interns".
