Interviewed by our colleagues from Télé 2 Semaines as part of the upcoming presidential campaign, Laurence Ferrari told how she prepared and lived this media event, which is always apart in the career of a journalist. Even if the former companion of Thomas Hugues did not wait to become a journalist to know the intensity linked to an electoral period. Indeed, the former presenter of the JT of TF1 is also the daughter of the former deputy-mayor of Aix-les-Bains. And for having closely rubbed shoulders with the political scene, Laurence Ferrari knows the price to pay. “I have vivid memories of evenings of victory, with the house full, flowers, people congratulating you… And evenings with the house empty, the telephone no longer ringing and the people who, on Mondays, when you accompany your father doing the shopping, changing the sidewalk so as not to greet. Politics is even more violent than television!‘, says the CNews journalist.
“I know it all comes down to the last moment“
For this fourth presidential campaign that she is covering as a journalist, Laurence Ferrari is serene, impatient and focused. “I have experience and I know that everything really comes down to the last moment. This gives me the necessary perspective on what is happening at the moment T. There is a lot of concentration and work: I prepare files which I know will be useful to me throughout the campaign, on the program and the arguments of the candidates“, she reveals to our colleagues from TV 2 weeks.
As for her post today on CNews, the journalist feels very warm and does not want to relive the excitement of prime time television news. “All the politicians want to do the 8 p.m. At TF1, I spent my time saying no. Even today, a ‘statutory’ announcement, an application, it’s at 8 p.m. that it happens. But the debate “lives” on the news channels because we have time.“, she explains.
