French far-right pundit and presidential candidate Éric Zemmour was found guilty of copyright infringement on Friday over his unauthorised use of film clips and newsreels in a video launching his run for the Élysée Palace.
Zemmour, a writer and talk show pundit known for his polarising attacks on Muslims and immigrants, was ordered to pay a total of 70,000 euros to plaintiffs including French film directors Luc Besson and François Ozon.
