Bakchich (internet)
Bakchich was a French news website founded in May 2006.
It has some articles translated into English.[1] The chief editor was Nicolas Beau, a former reporter at the satirical weekly Le Canard enchaîné. Its name finds its origin in the Arabic word "baksheesh", which means money given to corrupt an official in order to cut down redtape (i.e. a bribe). The newspaper advocated a leftist allegiance.
It went into administration in 2011 [2] and the site registration expired in 2016.[3]
