CNews: the Council of State calls on the media regulator to better control the channel

The Council of State asked Arcom - the audiovisual policeman - to better control the continuous news channel CNews. He considers in particular that "Arcom must take into account the diversity of currents of thought and opinions represented by all the participants in the programs broadcast" to assess the respect for pluralism by the channel, "including columnists, hosts and guests, and not just the speaking time of political figures.”

The Council of State also judges that “Arcom must ensure the independence of information within the channel by taking into account all of its operating conditions and the characteristics of its programming, and not only from the sequence of an extract from a particular program. The highest administrative court “ordered Arcom to re-examine within six months compliance by the CNews channel with its obligations in terms of pluralism and independence of information”, according to a press release.
