The French media decided or was instructed not to cover the incident. Not news worthy? So much for “Je suis Charlie” and ”Freedom of Expression” in journalism. Likewise, the Western media including all major news services (AP, AFP, Reuters, Deutsche Welle, etc) have not covered the issue. One isolated report in Le Parisien presents the act of suicide as being totally unrelated to the Charlie Hebdo investigation. While described as being depressive and suffering from a burnout, police reports state that Helric Fredou’s suicide was totally unexpected. Moreover, it is worth noting that, according to reports, he committed suicide in his workplace, in his office at the police station. Did he commit suicide? Was he incited to commit suicide? Or was he an “honest Cop” executed on orders of France’s judicial police? Has his report been released? These are issues for France’s journalists to address. It’s called investigative reporting. Or is it outright media censorship?
