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:
“Come, little boy, and rock asleep;
Sing lullaby and be thou still;
I, that can do naught else but weep,
Will sit by thee and wail my fill:
God bless my babe, and lullaby
From this thy father’s quality.”
—Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)
“Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
