John Kerry Graces Cover of New French Satire Magazine: PETIE PEBDO

PPPS (Paris)—As the Pundit Pete Press Service expands its media footprint across the globe, we are proud to announce the launch of our new French language satire magazine, PETIE PEBDO.

Headquartered at an undisclosed location in Paris, PETIE PEBDO will be run by two of our experienced staff, Chief EU Correspondent, Pierre Pete, and Investigative Reporter, Poirot Pete. Editorial content will be supplemented with artwork and cartoons from Pixel Pete and Pencil Pete.

Our inaugural edition has been sent off to the printers and will be on newsstands soon. Here, to wet those famous French appetites, is the cover from that first edition, featuring U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry. 

JE SUIS CHARLIE - Colorado bridge message in support of France

PPPS (Littleton)—Millions of French citizens and several world leaders, rallied in Paris earlier today in defiance of Islamic terrorists.

Unfortunately, President Obama, was not among them.

Two community members of Littleton, Colorado, Citizen Caryn and Citizen Pete, sought to remedy that shameful absense in their own small way, by posting a message in solidarity with the French people on a local pedestrian bridge.

NOT AFRAID      JE SUIS CHARLIE

Message on Bridge to Nowhere posted 11-Jan-2015 (click to enlarge)

While they were on the bridge, they noticed a man taking several photos from the street. The man then came up on the bridge, and after apologizing for not knowing much English, simply said "Merci".

He turned out to be a French man named Tyler. 

Citizens Caryn and Pete said that one comment really made their day!


Update January 13, 2015: Our bridge message was covered by Colorado Peak Politics.
