During the American Civil War, political ideology was the most
important determinant of French journalistic attitudes.
Conservatives usually supported the South while Liberals usually
supported the North. Provincial newspapers, however, less
consistently followed ideological patterns than their Parisian and
big-city colleagues. Slavery was not a determinant of French
attitudes, since all French were opposed to slavery; rather, both
Conservatives and Liberals used the issue of slavery as a device to
garner support. While Conservatives remained firm in believing that
the South would prevail until the very end, Liberal journalists
sometimes despaired of a Union triumph in the face of Northern
military defeats.
