"I am quite tired of this kind of globalisation approach to journalism and the formatted news that we are fed every day by the mainstream media. I think one of the first things for literary reportage should be to go into the field and to try to get the other side of the story. Reportage should give a fresh vision of a topic. "Anne Nivat (jury member 2005 & 2006)
