Arcom was alerted to comments made by Mr. Guillaume Meurice in a column broadcast on October 29, 2023 on France Inter's comedy program Le Grand dimanche Soir, describing the Israeli Prime Minister as "a kind of Nazi, but without foreskin".

While reaffirming the importance of protecting the freedom of expression of humorists, the Authority considered that the chronicle in question, whose risks of repercussions on the cohesion of our society could not be ignored, particularly in a context marked by an increase in anti-Semitic acts, undermined the proper exercise by Radio France of its missions and the relationship of trust it must maintain with all its listeners.

The AMF therefore warned the company and summoned it to the utmost vigilance in view of the particularly sensitive situation linked to the conflict in the Middle East.
