Arcom was alerted to a segment of the program L'heure des pros shown on September 29, 2023 on CNews.
Article 2-3-2 of the channel's agreement stipulates that: " The publisher shall ensure in its program: [...] not to encourage discriminatory behavior on the grounds of race or origin, [...] or nationality ".
She noted that the show's host had asked a contributor about a possible link between the increase in bedbugs and immigration. It considered that the very wording of such a question was likely to encourage discriminatory behavior.
As a result, the Autorité warned the service editor against any repetition of such breaches, and demanded that it demonstrate the utmost vigilance in respecting the aforementioned stipulations.
