The working record behind the columns: the facts wall, field footage, and the public-affairs entries kept on file.

A note on language. This section is researched and written in French. Rather than machine-translate the reporting, the entries below keep their original French titles and link to the French pages. Where an English translation exists, the link goes to it directly.

Le mur des faits

The facts wall

Dated entries with their sources attached, kept so that a claim made in a column can be traced back to where it came from.

Vidéos de terrain

Field footage

Raw sequences filmed or collected on location, published without commentary so they can be judged on their own.

Ceuta, le PSG, la rue

Ceuta, the PSG night, the street

European scenes filed as reference material — the argument being that they are not elsewhere, but earlier.

Affaires publiques, noms publics

Public affairs, public names

Entries concerning people acting in a public capacity, kept to the public record.

On YouTube and Facebook

Shorter pieces and field clips are published on social platforms first.
