As a reminder: Dominique Giroud made a tax error. He has acknowledged this error. He said it was unacceptable. He has publicly expressed his regrets. He undertook to reimburse the amounts he had misappropriated. He was convicted by the courts. Fault-regrets-conviction-reparation. The case is closed. But not for everyone. In its 23 December 2014 edition, Le Temps is devoting its front page, editorial and page 3 to the subject. On what pretext? Le Temps believes it can prove that Maurice Tornay was an accomplice of Dominique Giroud. This is not true. This question has been clarified by federal investigators, who have cleared the current member of the Council of State of any suspicion of complicity or participation in tax evasion. Once again, the case is closed. The ATS makes no mistake and does not repeat the article in Le Temps. The RTS Yes! And how! It was the cavalry that was called to the rescue: the RTS pounced on this fake scoop at 12:45, then at Forum, and finally at 19:30. The ATS remains unmoved. With rare exceptions, the other media too. Le Temps and the RTS Do they have a grudge against Dominique Giroud that's causing them to lose their lucidity?
