The business Make

In 1996, the Lefred-Thouron draftsman resigns of Charlie-Hebdo after Philippe Val refused a drawing on the “Font business” (implying Patrick Font in a pedophilia case); Lefred-Thouron will declare later, in a maintenance granted to the newspaper Is republican (September 15th 1996) that “Philippe Val explained that to turn that to derision could have harmed the credibility which the newspaper started to acquire”. The draftsman explains that he resigned for reasons “of ethics and honor” vis-a-vis the “syndrome of politically correct” (formula of the journalist guaranteed by the draftsman) from which according to him Charlie-Hebdo suffers.
