This Saturday, June 10, 2023, Léa Salamé presented a new issue of What an era! on France 2, surrounded by its usual columnists, but also by guests in the media spotlight. Entertainment talk show, the show is also a place for topical debates… and the latter was heavily marked by the stabbing attack, Thursday, June 8, of four very young children in a green space of Annecy by a man of Syrian origin. Dread, horror invaded France. Léa Salamé decided to come back to this tragedy with her guests of the evening, including the star host of TF1 Nikos Aliagas, politicians Aymeric Caron, LFI deputy and former columnist for Laurent Ruquier alongside Léa Salamé in We are not in bed, and the former minister Roselyne Bachelot, who came to present the book of interviews written by the journalist Arnaud Wajdzik in which she evokes her career but also surrounded by the writer, ex-wife of Igor Bogdanoff, Amélie de Bourbon-Parme as well than weather presenter Chloé Nabédian, who left France 2 a few months ago to devote herself entirely to her fight for ecology, and glaciologist Heïdi Sevestre.

“It’s all these people who are filming and who are not moving”
All, of course, did not fail to display their immense sadness… or to salute, like Nikos Aliagas, this boy who “moved him so much”Henri, the young hero “with a backpack” as the press dubbed him, who pursued the child abuser in Annecy, “he’s a guy who did just the right thing at the time, I don’t know if we would have had the courage to do it” he launches in front of Christophe Dechavanne who immediately bounces on this question: “he was tremendously intelligent, he had the courage to embarrass him, to disturb him, to divert his attention to possibly avoid further crimes…” comments the former presenter of Heaven my Tuesday.

“It’s called voyeurism”
And above all to add his source of anger: “What really shocked me was all these images!” he says while scrolling on the screen amateur videos taken at the very moment of the attack, in the park of Annecy. “It’s all these people who film and who don’t move. I’m sorry, we’re there a number of men, something like this is happening, there’s one who says to ten others ‘oh guys, it’s not possible not to go’ … There are plenty of axes, there are a lot of people filming. I was extremely shocked by THEvery posed images, not at all panicked and who follow all this…” Roselyne Bachelot intervenes: “it’s called voyeurism” and the host to retort: “it’s worse, there’s something else, what world are we in? Maybe when we didn’t have cell phones, this person who is filming might have gone to help this young man…”. A challenging question indeed.
