It has been heard often but is hardly remembered: information is a universal right, enshrined in most constitutions but increasingly violated with total impunity. A global overview with the Secretary General of Reporter Without Borders.

From 1994 to 1996, he carried out his national service as a development worker at TF1’s Berlin bureau, then worked for two years as a freelancer at Arte and LCI.
