The whole exhibition is fascinating for me, but it is about my work. It is hard for me to tell whether you will find it as interesting. It is also based mostly on the French press, so if you are interested in how all the papers and magazines you see on kiosks in Paris get there, then do not pass this up. If history is your interest, then you see scraps of it here - as it was seen by the press. To this effect, an association has been created - the same one that has mounted this exhibition, which is also sponsored by the Ville de Paris.
More new information is created every day than can 'fit' into the world's press on any given day.
If all the 'news' created on any given day were dumped on you in raw lots, you wouldn't be able to see any forest because you would be buried under a load of trees. The function of the press is not to filter this waterfall - but to try to snatch any good fish out of it as they whiz by. Naturally some of the good fish get missed entirely, and others get badly mangled in the grab. But the 'news' isn't something physical like a fish. News' can be verified up to a point but it can seldom be proved.
