Arcom was alerted to comments made during the program Touche pas à mon poste! broadcast on October 17, 2023 on C8.
It noted that the statements were made in the context of a public controversy with wide media coverage, allowing for greater freedom of expression. It considered that they were not of a nature to characterize incitement to hatred or violence, nor to dangerous, delinquent or uncivil behavior towards members of the La France insoumise movement.
Arcom points out that, according to the consistent case law of the European Court of Human Rights, political figures must, by nature, show greater tolerance for criticism.
Consequently, the Authority has not taken any action against the service editor.
