L’International Herald Tribune<\/em> (IHT) r\u00e9v\u00e9lait – rappelait, faudrait-il dire – dans ce qui semble la plus grande indiff\u00e9rence que les journalistes de chaque pays membre de l’Union europ\u00e9enne (UE) peuvent b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier du remboursement de leurs frais de d\u00e9placement<\/a> lorsqu’ils se rendent \u00e0 Bruxelles. Cela a \u00e9t\u00e9 repris ensuite par le Monde Diplomatique<\/em>, comme il se doit.<\/p>\n

Pourquoi est-ce grave ? La libert\u00e9 de la presse, et la d\u00e9ontologie propre au m\u00e9tier de journaliste, implique que les journalistes ne soient pas incit\u00e9s \u00e0 couvrir un \u00e9v\u00e9nement plut\u00f4t qu’un autre. Si Bruxelles rembourse les frais de d\u00e9placement (y compris 100 \u20ac d’h\u00f4tel), notre bon journaliste aura tendance \u00e0 couvrir plus r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement les actualit\u00e9s europ\u00e9ennes. Ce n’est \u00e9videmment pas un mal en soit, on ne parle jamais trop d’Europe; mais le proc\u00e9d\u00e9 est lui inacceptable, pouvant \u00eatre sans raccourci assimil\u00e9 \u00e0 un pot-de-vin. L’UE, r\u00e9v\u00e8le le IHT, verse au grand jour – on ne saurait parler de \u00ab\u00a0dessous de table\u00a0\u00bb – une prime \u00e0 l’information.<\/p>\n

Il est d’autant plus choquant de prendre connaissance de cette pratique apr\u00e8s l’\u00e9pisode r\u00e9cent des caricatures danoises – et europ\u00e9ennes – de Mahomet : le d\u00e9cha\u00eenement jusqu’au-boutiste des journalistes, revendiquant avec une ferveur parfois illumin\u00e9e leur droit \u00e0 l’ind\u00e9pendance, a marqu\u00e9 les esprits. Ils veulent \u00eatre libre de pouvoir publier et parler de ce qu’ils souhaitent; soit, c’est le principe de la libert\u00e9 d’expression.<\/p>\n

Mais encore une fois, rappelons que la libert\u00e9 d’expression n’est pas illimit\u00e9e<\/a>, et que ce droit s’accompagne immanquablement d’une s\u00e9rie de devoirs avec lesquels on ne saurait transiger. Que ce soit l’UE qui subvienne aux faux frais des reporters est certes moins pr\u00e9occupant que s’il s’agissait d’une aide provenant du Groupe Dassault<\/a>. Mais il n’emp\u00eache que les r\u00e9actions parfois extr\u00e9mistes affich\u00e9es il y a deux mois par nos informateurs devraient les pousser \u00e0 vouloir \u00eatre au-dessus de tout soup\u00e7ons. Et \u00e0 condamner avec le m\u00eame z\u00e8le les largesses bruxelloises.<\/p>\n

A quand la premi\u00e8re page des quotidiens des semaines durant, l’ouverture des journaux t\u00e9l\u00e9vis\u00e9s sur la d\u00e9ontologie dans le journalisme ?<\/p>\n
