“Apart from July 14, it will be the longest live news show of the year. There will be three hours of live on this first round of the presidential election. We attach a great deal of importance to it. The second thing is thatfrom 8 p.m. our efforts are focused on having the best guests, the clearest possible results, to be in the HQ, to have the reactions as quickly as possible, and to give meaning. Between 8 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., we will have fully accomplished this mission, without frustration. By 9:30 p.m., everyone who matters will have reacted and everything that has changed in the political balance will be drawn. I have no regrets about that.
