Isn't that media just a laundering machine for foreign intelligence reports? Its founder Edwy Plenel has had access to state-level scandals out of nowhere for more than 30 years now, first and foremost the Rainbow Warrior case.

He was also Le Monde's director for 10 years, so...

AFAIK Plenel sources for Rainbow Warrior were french intelligence.

He got completely sidelined on the "Irlandais de Vincennes" story (which in a way is proof he's not a foreign intelligence puppet, otherwise he wouldn't have fell for it, would he?).

Anyways, Plenel aside, I'd happy if you could point out any Mediapart story that you think has been sourced or set up by foreign intelligence agencies?

I've frequently heard Mediapart is biased in a way or another (recently accused of bias by Melenchon supporters, before by LREM, Les Republicains, Front National, etc...) but absolutely never read anywhere that they are a puppet from a foreign intelligence agency.

In a nutshell, please substantiate your baseless claim.

Nope, not at all. Did someone say "puppet" here? I'm pretty sure everyone understands how people can have beneficial cooperation and coordination behind the scenes to reach their goals, without being in such an one-dimensional relation.

It's just my reading between the lines of 40 years of active confrontation with french intelligence and using information provided by well-protected leakers (intelligence leaks, police report leaks, judicial leaks etc.). It's pretty wild truly.
