Is there a route back for M'Barki?  Would the right-wing broadcaster CNEWS take him on considering he's happy to broadcast disinformation for cash?

Speaking of which, Frédéric Taddeï is now on CNEWS on Saturday and Sunday evenings from 10pm to midnight. It's actually a great show and is of similar quality to what Darius Rochebin does on LCI. The guests aren't the usual pundits and are actual experts in their respective fields. The show isn't stuck to the usual themes of the channel. All in all, a nice surprise though topics like feminism and the climate may prove to be a little too 'woke' for the channel's usual viewers who watch to confirm their prejudices.

At least, something different from the usual right-wing, clash-ridden punditry which often populates most of the channel's schedule. In an interview with Le Parisien, however, Taddeï said that the show will feature a bigger diversity of topics and pundits from cultural circles. This leads to question me: is Bolloré trying to convince the Arcom that he will pledge to increase the channel's diversity of voices as its license is up to renewal by 2025? Taddeï won't do the job alone, however.

Back to Project Tempo (France 3's new newscasts), Philippe Martinetti, director of France 3's regional content, has announced formally the replacement of the 18.30 pre-newscast which is produced by the regional centres, and consisted mostly of lighter fare reporting on patrimonial issues and local events and happenings; it also airs a daily capsule produced by France 3 Régions, Le journal des solutions, which focuses on reporting outstanding entrepreneurial, social and environmental achievements made in the regions. As the new Ici 12/13 and Ici 19/20 shows are launching in the new season, Le journal des solutions will move to the first part of Ici 12/13, and the regional reports are moving to each of the new broadcasts. Martinetti, however, is studying to free up the slot to launch new cultural magazines or place a game show in it.

Finally, Ronald Faure, former CEO of Radio France, has died at 96. He championed the launch of franceinfo alongside Jérôme Bellay, which, at the time, was a total revolution, as it was the first all-news radio station in France, and the seed for what today is the multimedia news platform of the same brand (including the TV channel).
