Petition to ban French right-wing TV channel clears 600,000 signatures after racist killing
A petition calling for right-wing television channel CNews to be taken off-air cleared 600,000 signatures on Monday after a Frenchman shot and killed a French national of Congolese origin and wounded seven others. The 39-year-old shooter is believed to have been an avid watcher of CNews, which is owned by ultra-conservative billionaire Vincent Bolloré and has been accused of promoting far-right anti-immigrant views.
