Paris mayor: We have to sue Fox News over 'no-go zones' claim


In an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said that Paris plans should sue Fox News over claims that the city has "no-go zones" for non-Muslims.
The "no-go zone" claims have been ridiculed as inaccurate. Fox News has apologized, but Hidalgo said that Fox News has "insulted" the city.
"When we're insulted, then I think we'll have to sue, I think we'll have to go to court, in order to have these words removed," Hidalgo said. "The image of Paris has been prejudiced, and the honor of Paris has been prejudiced."
