So Bloomberg got caught out by a fake press release and got fined - what happened to the originator of the fake press release?

France has a problem /history with anonymous poison pen letters.

Sounds to me like some one was settling scores and Bloomberg got caught I doubt that a French equivalent of Bloomberg would have been fined.



French press can be fined, don't worry, i.e C8 3M€ in 2017, Amaury press group 3.5 M€ un 2015

On that very case, no one can tell.
