It may also have had something to do with the press simply refusing to publish anything from the leaks [1]. In fact that may be more relevant.

I'm not sure what I think about this. Firstly this is the government censoring the press by threatening individual reporters with criminal charges ... I don't know what to say. This is obviously very, very bad.

It completely baffles me how anyone can be happy with Macron.
