The US corporate media have largely ignored the constitutional crisis in France, where President Macron refuses to respect the recent election results, leaving the country without a legitimate government for nearly two months. Despite the historic impasse, media coverage remains subdued. Macron's claims of preserving "institutional stability" go unchallenged, while the left coalition's willingness to compromise is questioned, with little critical reporting from major news outlets. Despite sparse coverage by some outlets, there is a lack of comprehensive reporting on the situation.
