A “vast majority of journalists (was) pronounced against the potential arrival of Cyril Hanouna ”

“This announcement is the epilogue of several weeks of negotiations, during which the companies of journalists (SDJ) of M 6 and RTL, as well as the union representatives of the group, expressed their great concern in the potential arrival of this media personality,” said the two bodies.

For them, the “safeguards” offered by the group’s management, which include a slight deferred in the broadcast of the presenter’s programs and internal sanctions in the event of overflow, “did not convince”.
