Macron: ‘To Protect Our Democracies We Have to Fight Against the Ever-Growing Virus of Fake News’

EXCERPT:

MACRON: "To protect our democracies we have to fight against the ever-growing virus of fake news, which exposes our people to irrational fear and imaginary risk. (Applause) And let me attributes copyright for the expression fake news, especially here. Without reason, without proofs there is no real democracy. Because democracy is about true choices and rational decisions. The corruption of information is an attempt to corrode the very spirit of our democracies.” (Applause)
