Since October 22, 2023, Laurence Boccolini has hosted “Les enfants de la télé” on France 2, after the resounding departure of Laurent Ruquier. The television presenter, who has seen his airtime on the public service reduced dramatically for years, has finally decided to set course for BFMTV, at the last school year. And on social networks, the latter’s fans do not spare his replacement…
“I search and sometimes I find that’s the worst”
This November 6, 2023, on the Children of TV Instagram account, the production shared a behind-the-scenes video of the November 5 show presented by Laurence Boccolini. And an Internet user assured, without filters about Willow’s mother: “I miss Laurent at the presentation, Boccolini is always looking for what she is going to say NULL….” And the main interested party responds with the authority we know: “I search and sometimes I find that’s the worst”.
Enough to reframe potential future harassers, on the Web, since Laurence Boccolini is not his first denunciation on social networks. In 2020, she explained on RTL: “I am no longer on Facebook, or on Twitter for that matter. Because it was a surge of hatred at the slightest comment“. And to add: “I had to respond to an Internet user on a hidden camera I believesomething I dared to criticize. I received an outpouring of hatred. They were death threats. Death threats also against my daughter”.
“There is no more freedom of expression”
A shock from which she learned lessons, since Laurence Boccolini finally estimated: “At some point, you tell yourself that there are people and shows that you can’t talk about. It’s something taboo. There is no more freedom of expression.” We understand better why she no longer waits to show her claws.
