The atmosphere was there on the set of Do not touch My TV this Thursday, May 4, 2023. Invited to speak on the controversy around his new book “La fault à Rousseau”, Éric Naulleau angered Gilles Verdez. Visibly disappointed by the relationship that the former columnist has with Éric Zemmour, Fatou’s husband violently attacked his comrade in full live. “Being friends with someone on the far right who is against Islam and Muslims, I don’t understand”he launched. “I understand your editorial confrontations on the sets with him, the debate is perfect. But that you are friends with someone who generally thinks that Islam and Muslims are too much, I do not understand.”
Far from sharing the point of view of Cyril Hanouna’s protege, the principal concerned defended himself. For his part, he does not understand how his rival can “support Mr. Mélenchon who has also been sentenced”. And to add: “It is a support of Jean-Luc Mélenchon who holds a republican discourse which borders more and more on the call for insurrection, the call for violence. You support violence, you support people for whom power is not taken at the ballot box, but in the street and you come to give me lessons. You are unfortunately a representative of something that I thought had disappeared: the totalitarian left”.

I don’t have any friends who want to wipe Muslims and Islam off the map of France.”
Annoyed by this futile debate, Éric Naulleau put an abrupt end to it. “Before the end of the debate, Gilles Verdez, are you going to come up with a valid argument, that is my great anxiety. For the moment everything is in the wall, everything is off topic so if you have something d ‘interesting to say say it now’. Atmosphere…
