French Photograph Guerrillas Attacking Plane

Just another day in Paris, a French magazine intends to profit from an attack on a German DHL cargo plane. The magazine, Paris Match, had a photog and correspondent along for the ride with "Iraqi guerrillas", presumably guerrillas fighting the coalition forces.

And although "[editor-in-chief] Genestar rejected accusations that his magazine could be seen to be sympathising with the Iraqi rebels", they aren't above making a little money from it.

Media in France--just like media in America: bad news sells.
