A sequence that immediately ignited Twitter, where the keywords #hanounagroscon and #soutienlouisboyard, but also the name of Raquel Garrido, “rebellious” deputy that the host prevailed to have “every day on the phone”, was still, on Friday at the end of the day, among the most frequently used.
Denouncing “an attempted intimidation” and “methods of censorship”, Louis Boyard announced, Friday afternoon, asking “our National Assembly the opening of a commission of inquiry (…) on the Bolloré interference in our media, and therefore on “TPMP” “.

You are in a political battle, people – young people – who watch the program are not people Who listen to a morning. It is sometimes the only place where you manage to bring a little politics. “His colleague from Seine-Saint-Denis Clémentine Autain, who decided for herself not to answer the invitations, summarizes The dilemma: “We must arbitrate between going to channels that participate in a climate conducive to the far right, and deprive yourself of millions of viewers.”
