Première édition" broadcast on September 26, 2023: response to the plaintiffs
Translations are provided as a service to Arcom users and are supplied “as is”, throught the DeepL tool. Consequently, only the text of the original version is authentic.
Arcom was alerted to the diffusion, on BFM TV's Première édition program of September 26, 2023, of an excerpt from the French National Assembly speech by MP Jocelyn Dessigny.
It noted that although the MP's entire speech had not been shown on air, the on-set journalist had immediately and explicitly verbally clarified the full meaning of the statement.
Consequently, neither the content nor the meaning of this statement appear to have been distorted, so that the channel has not failed in its obligation to provide honest information.
Consequently, the Authority did not take any action against the service editor.
