There is a mostly worthless article in Le Monde in which Charb, the director of Charlie Hebdo, defends the magazine against accusations that it is “racist”. I found this detail interesting however.
One day an Arab taxi driver ordered one of the magazine’s employees, who he recognised, to get out [of the vehicle] right away because of drawings mocking the Muslim religion. Another day, a person we were speaking with refused us an interview because he “doesn’t speak a magazine of gross racists.”
