Breton News

Breton News was a magazine set up by Alan Heusaff amongst Breton émigrés in Ireland in the 1950s. It was published in English, French and Breton, and aimed to disseminate information about the political situation in Brittany amongst people in the Celtic countries, which he felt was not being discussed fairly and properly by the French and British media.

Heusaff was amongst the founders of the Celtic League, and Breton News became merged into Carn magazine.

Famous quotes containing the words breton and/or news:

    It is impossible for me to envisage a picture as being other than a window, and ... my first concern is then to know what it looks out on.
    —André Breton (1896–1966)

    The conflict between the men who make and the men who report the news is as old as time. News may be true, but it is not truth, and reporters and officials seldom see it the same way.... In the old days, the reporters or couriers of bad news were often put to the gallows; now they are given the Pulitzer Prize, but the conflict goes on.
    James Reston (b. 1909)
