Arcom (the French public authority for the regulation of audiovisual and digital communication, editor’s note) has decided! This Thursday, February 2, the television gendarmes met. It was decided to close without follow-up, as reported by Le Parisien, the affair of the celebration of the hearings of Touche Pas À Mon Poste following the death of the young Lola, by Cyril Hanouna.
Remember, on October 19, 2022, the star host of C8 was celebrating on set because the show had exceeded two million viewers the day before. In the program ? Brazilian dancers and fireworks.
This historic audience record followed the handling of the Lola affair on Cyril Hanouna’s show. And as soon as the fiesta organized by Baba was over, public opinion fell on him!
Arcom ended up recognizing that “the acclaimed audiences concerned the first two months of the season”. The former CSA did not retain any attack on the dignity of the person.
“Know it when we make two million (from viewers, editor’s note) two days in a row, there are all the morons on social networks who are starting to get on our heads, all the jealous, all the haters”had at the time of the facts, booed Cyril Hanouna. “I want to tell them, ‘Honey, don’t worry, we’re going to keep making two million and it’s going to be fine.’
What is Arcom?
The Audiovisual and Digital Communication Regulatory Authority (Arcom) is the result of the merger between the Superior Audiovisual Council and the High Authority for the Dissemination of Works and the Protection of Rights on the Internet (Hadopi). Arcom’s primary mission is, as indicated on its website, to guarantee freedom of expression and audiovisual and digital communication. Its members also ensure “that the programs broadcast comply with the regulations regarding the protection of minors, the processing of information, the organization of electoral campaigns, advertising, and the representation of society in its diversity.”
