Polémique Jérémy Doku : France Pierron suspendue d'antenne par le Groupe L'Équipe
Journalist and presenter France Pierron has been taken off the air at L'Équipe TV until the end of the season of the show "L'Équipe de choc," scheduled for July 3rd. According to information obtained by our newsroom, she will also be summoned on June 30th for a meeting with the group's human resources department, although her future with the company is not currently in jeopardy.
The controversy erupted on Friday, June 19th, during a live broadcast. Reacting to Belgian international striker Jérémy Doku's decision to temporarily leave the national team camp to be present for his wife's childbirth, the presenter openly expressed her incomprehension. She described the birth of a child as "a disgusting moment, where the father is useless." These remarks immediately sparked a wave of outrage worldwide.
Given the scale of the situation, the L'Équipe Group officially distanced itself from its employee's statements. The company nevertheless firmly condemned the excesses stemming from this affair in a press release: "The L'Équipe Group condemns in the strongest possible terms the cyberbullying campaign, the insults, and the threats to which our journalist has been subjected. No disagreement can justify such behavior. As such, she has the Group's full support in the face of these unacceptable actions."
To compensate for this prolonged absence, the sports channel announced that Pierre Bouby will take over as interim presenter of the show until the end of the season.
