Médias Citoyens stated that the CGT of France Télévisions demanded the resignation of Laurent Delahousse and the entire weekend 20 Heures team after the broadcast of a report on the violence of October 17. According to the media outlet, the union criticized the lack of comments to contextualize the subject and the airing of an intervention by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, which it labeled as an "obvious misunderstanding" and a "gross and dishonest procedure." Médias Citoyens indicated that it had rewatched the sequence and deemed that Mélenchon was discussing the mobilization of young people and its scale, and not the violence. The media concluded that the choice to air his statements in this report could be debated, but was not sufficient to prove that they had been distorted. It accused the CGT of stepping outside its union role by demanding the resignation of journalists and intervening, in its view, in a political battle as the 2027 presidential election approaches. Médias Citoyens has asked the ethics committee of France Télévisions to investigate the matter, particularly the pressures exerted on the editorial staff and their consequences for editorial independence. #CGT #Mélanchon #LibertéÉditoriale (translated)

The association Transparence Citoyenne announced that it has initiated legal action against Yaël Braun-Pivet's refusal to provide the expense reports of members of parliament. It had requested these documents on May 20 for the period from July 2022 to May 2026. Yaël Braun-Pivet had refused on June 11, and then the ethics officer of the National Assembly also rejected the request, according to the association. Transparence Citoyenne indicated that the refusals cited the special regime of parliamentarians, national sovereignty, the oversight exercised by the ethics officer, and the protection of privacy. The association argued that the reports were accounting documents related to public functions and that society had the right to hold public officials accountable. It also referenced a decision by the Council of State in 2023 regarding the release of expense reports related to the mayor of Paris and her office. The association estimated that sensitive elements, such as the identity of a guest, could be redacted on a case-by-case basis. It also argued that no law prohibited the release of these documents and that the 2019 decision by the Council of State cited against its request concerned bank account statements, not expense reports. Transparence Citoyenne acknowledged that the process could be difficult, as administrative justice had long declared itself incompetent regarding the acts of parliamentary assemblies, but stated its intention to demonstrate that the case law had evolved. #Transparence #Justice #Démocratie (translated)

Matthieu Pigasse indicated that the Combat group was a candidate for one of the six television frequencies being reallocated. He presented the project as cultural and political, advocating for a free, popular, and irreverent channel that would use culture, music, humor, and political debate as means of emancipation. According to him, the channel would highlight diversity and discovery, give a voice to those rarely heard, and showcase new talents. He also mentioned a television blending screens, digital, and social networks, supported by the media, teams, and brands of the group, notably Radio Nova, Les Inrockuptibles, and its festivals. Pigasse believed that the success of these brands demonstrated a need for other voices and new ways to tell the world and bring culture to life. He described his ambition as that of a television reflecting contemporary France and contributing to shaping that of tomorrow. #Télévision #Culture #Diversité (translated)
