Since October 2020, she has been the face that the faithful of France 2 find when Anne-Sophie Lapix takes leave. Karine Baste, 40, is the Basque’s joker at 8 p.m. on the second channel. A role that the Martiniquaise tries to embody with as much honesty as possible. “I speak as in everyday life in order to popularize the info. That said, I’m a joker. In fact, I cannot impose my paw. I fit into Anne-Sophie Lapix’s slippers, which is the basics when you’re at my job. It’s an obvious way to respect the owner. There is an editorial line that I cannot upset. Besides, I won’t even try to do it“, she explained to our colleagues from Télé Loisirs.
The journalist also says that she has a very good relationship with her colleague. “We get along extremely well and we text a lot. She is smiling, we laugh a lot. She is very simple, very human, very benevolent. It means a lot to have someone like her in charge. There is no fuss between us. She’s in her place, I’m in mine, she knows I’m not trying to give myself anything. I am very respectful” she confided.
And if Anne-Sophie Lapix collects the favors of the channel as a holder, some viewers sometimes prefer the West Indian. “JI much prefer the presentation of the 8 p.m. news by Karine Baste Régis, replacing Ms. lapix, much more natural. More smiling, more fluid voice pleasant to listen to, and of a neutrality in politics, without contempt, which is becoming rare on the audiovisual service, “Karine Baste-Regis is great as a newscaster!! Fire Lapix !!!!!!”, Welcome back among uss Karine Baste Régis !!, “But you are always presentable, attractive dear Karine Baste Régis!“, could we read on Twitter in recent months.
