French Boardies! I need your help!
 

I need to have 5 french articles to talk about for my french oral exam. I've been googling for a while now but I can't seem to come up with anything decent so I was wondering if you guys could recommend me some french websites/magazines where I can find some... Or if you happen to have an interesting article by any chance that would certainly be helpful. Rep 4 life for those who help me, I'm desperate.

im not french but what kind of articles are you talking about? any preferred subjects?

you could potentially find anything here:

??

Yes, what kind of articles are you looking for?
What topics are expected?

If you're looking for things from the local press, I'd point this :
http://www.marianne2.fr/Sarkozy-ou-l...in_a87673.html
It's about our president (hallowed be the name of his shadow) and diplomacy towards some African countries; and DG in the text stands for Directeur Général
It ain't long, and not particularly well written; by that I mean that there are no surprises for the French reader, no style... well, it's a regular article.
That's from an anti-government newspaper.

It ain't politics. A bit hard to grab maybe; but it's something quite weird that happened, so there.
Le Parisien is a popular paper.
AFP stands for Agence France Presse.

This one's about sparrows. No politics, no hot topics, but some vocabulary and a pleasant read for the native I am.
Left-wing oriented. There's a lot about our president (may his name be blessed forever).

And I'd go to http://www.liberation.fr/ from time to time to pick the rest.

Hope it helps.

Bonjour, Je m'appelle Lurker.
