Four films about the world of journalism in different countries. Le Canard Enchaîné in France
'The duck in chains' is the court jester of French journalism. Every week since 1916 it has satirised politicians and public figures mercilessly. It is owned by the journalists who write it and collectively edited by them. And it has one of the largest circulations in France - half-a-million copies a week.
Canard's other speciality apart from satire is scandal. Even its enemies have called Canard the best informed paper in France. In 1973 the magazine was the victim itself of a scandal, when official attempts were made to bug the paper's offices in order to find out who was supplying it with classified government information.
