this famous journalist who is not in the good graces of the President

Emmanuel Macron is now officially campaigning for re-election. The President of the Republic, who had to delete a problematic publication from his social networks, does not wish to participate in a debate with the 11 other candidates for the presidential election of 2022. Like the former Presidents who had presented themselves at the election for a second term, Emmanuel Macron does not want to descend into the political arena and face a risky debate where sound bites could overshadow the campaign he is waging to defend his record and the stature of warlord he maintains.

Emmanuel Macron, whose surprising series of photos caused a lot of reaction, therefore carefully chooses his speeches and the media in which he expresses himself. While the war in Ukraine is raging, Emmanuel Macron however participated in a program on TF1, France in the face of war, moderated by Anne-Claire Coudray and Gilles Bouleau. 8 candidates followed one another for a series of interviews conducted by the two journalists.

Corn The world reports that the public group has “not good press” in the presidential entourage. A program and a journalist are, in particular, visibly the object of criticism from the President. “Anne-Sophie Lapix’s 8 p.m. newspaper, in particular, is considered too critical and too declinist”, specifies the daily. “In the spring of 2021, the government spokesperson, Gabriel Attal, had met the director of information for France Télévisions, Laurent Guimier, allowing himself to slip him program ideas…”, adds Le Monde.

If in 2017, Emmanuel Macron had won the election by relying in particular on the traditional media, five years later he seems to be betting on his own team to campaign. The world specifies that “whether documentaries are being produced by certain TV channels”, the close guard of the President plays its own part. For “tell behind the scenes of their campaign”, the relatives of Emmanuel Macron upload a video on Youtube every Friday in which “a director specially recruited for the occasion” pretends to ask the candidate questions. Emmanuel Macron’s very locked campaign has only just begun…
