Because it's a rather French specific thing, outside of twitter I can only find articles in French.
This kinds of sum up the situation well.
There's articles pretty much everywhere if you understand French.
People from Libération, Slate, les Inroks and more are implicated.
A non insignificant number of leftwing publication have these people as part of the permanent staff, even editor in chief (for Slate.fr for example)
e: digging a little the director of the publication Voici was part of it alledgedly.
Here's an article from lemonde about this whole thing

I didn't know everyone involved but yeah, Vincent Glad and Alexandre Hervaud are quite famous in the world of French digital journalism. And I probably can feel ashamed too because I used to follow an account that was quite explicit about harassing Capucine Piot...
