Cyril Hanouna announced to join the M6 group during the last broadcast of the Touche pas à mon poste on C8, Thursday evening. The host will return to television on a new channel at the start of the school year, but by then TPMP should continue on another channel.
14:59 – Hanouna’s audiences promise a heyday in the M6 group
If the M6 group has taken the risk of offending its writing and one of the most popular presenters of the French, it is because it counts on the high popularity of Cyril Hanouna. With 2.1 million viewers on average and a peak at 2.6 million, the “TPMP” box brought together in January around 7.2 % of viewers. A boon for the group which anticipates audience records if the host manages to attract with him his audience.
13:27 – Why were C8 and Hanouna sanctioned by Arch?
In a document relayed by Les Echos, the Arcom directly calls into question the tone and the editorial line of Cyril Hanouna’s programs to justify the end of the chain. On the 2023-2024 season, only the audiovisual gendarme inflicted no less than seven sanctions against C8, bringing more than 7.6 million euros the total amount of fines imposed on the chain in the past eight years. The incident alone between Cyril Hanouna and the deputy Louis Boyard has earned Canal+ a penalty of 3.5 million euros.
12:31 – What are the “safeguards” provided by M6 to supervise Hanouna’s future programs?
While Cyril Hanouna has to join the M6 group at the start of the next school year for a daily newspaper on W9 as well as a program on Fun Radio, the group’s management claims to have planned “guarantees and safeguards to supervise the programs” soon entrusted to the troublemaker of the PAF. It provides indeed a slight delay in the broadcast of the presenter’s emissions, a control of drivers, the choice of employees and columnists of Cyril Hanouna and internal sanctions in the event of overflow, details Bfmtv.
11:28 – C8 is over, but complaints against Hanouna continue
If the C8 channel will cease to issue on February 28, their frequency authorization having not been renewed by the Arcom, their flagship animator is once again targeted by justice. The doctor and animator Michel Cymes announced to France InfoFriday, February 28, that he was going to file a complaint against Cyril Hanouna for “insults”, as well as against Europe 1 and C8, which released the words of the star host of “Touche pas à mon poste”. In his program “We walk on the head”, the presenter had described Michel Cymes “as a real asshole”, on February 17, before questioning his medical skills. Insults that did not please the concerned who decided to take the necessary measures. “You cannot insult people for years and years without it coming back in your mouth. (…) He spent his time insulting everyone, all the time,” he denounced.
10:39 – Karine Le Marchand measures her comments on Cyril Hanouna
Questioned this Wednesday about RTL about the arrival of Cyril Hanouna on the M6 group, the host of “Love is in the meadow” Karine the Marchand returned to her previous position. “I will always remain vigilant,” she simply warned. Measured remarks, far from the ultimatum she had formulated in the daily Releaseat the end of January: “If I come, I’m going”.
10:26 – An audience record for the farewell evening of TPMP
By playing on the impatience of viewers, C8 took the head of the audiences with his big Prime Time live “TPMP: all the truth”, led by Cyril Hanouna. In total, 3 million viewers were gathered without division between 9:15 p.m. and 11:47 p.m. to find out the future of the show and its presenter. On the eve of its closure, with 10.0 % market share, the C8 channel rises in third place in national channels on the whole day in front of France 3 and M6, but behind TF1 and France 2.
09:56 – M6 and RTL journalists’ companies fear the overflows of Cyril Hanouna
The arrival of Cyril Hanouna on the M6 group is far from unanimous. The companies of journalists (SDJ) of M6 and RTL are indeed “vigilant” in the face of the arrival of the animator in the group, they announced Friday in a press release. “We repeat that the values of the group, its journalists and more broadly of its employees have nothing to do with those previously conveyed by the program of Cyril Hanouna at his previous employer,” said the SDJs of the two channels. For them, the “safeguards” offered by the group’s management, which include a slight delay in the broadcasting of the presenter’s programs and internal sanctions in the event of an overflow, “did not convince”.
