Well that word Negationniste is a strange one... my wife is French and she
doesn't know it... If I catch her dad on Instant Messenger I will ask him...
Basically it means negative... but the way it is used in the article makes
it sound like a particular group of the Press.... ???? here is my rough
translation of that paragraph...
La presse négationniste est également largement représentée. C'est la
deuxième affaire en dix jours : l'ambassade d'Israël avait porté plainte
après la parution d'un livre de blagues à caractère violemment antisémite.
The negative press was equally, largely represented. It is the second
affair in 10 years: The ambassader of Israel has recorded a complaint to
the
police after a book of jokes was published having a violent or antisemitic
character.
