Quite a bit of critique for Charlie Hebdo who published a cartoon of Simona Halep likening her to scrap metal collectors, a job which in France is assimilated to Roma.
By the way, the outrage is not about the racist portraying of Roma – it is about associating Simona Halep and thus Romanians to Roma… No further commentaries.
