Exceptional programming for “Complementary investigation”. Broken in the second parts of Thursday evening, the France 2 news magazine will be offered this Sunday, September 11 from 10:35 p.m. Initially expected last Thursday, this unpublished issue was urgently deprogrammed to make way for the special edition of the Two devoted to the death of Queen Elizabeth II. While an evening dedicated to “Cash investigation” is scheduled for Thursday, September 15, the program presented by Tristan Waleckx should have waited until September 22 to be broadcast in its usual box.
Too long for France 2 while the report called “Scams, money and politics: The real business of influencers” is already the target of threats. As Puremedias reveals, some speakers in this section have been pushing for several days to no longer appear on the air. This is the case of Alex and Nina, a couple of influencers living in Dubai, who this week sent a lawyer’s letter to disappear from the investigation, in the name of respecting their image rights. Same missive received by “Complément d’Enquête”, this time from the advice of Milla Jasmine, another social media figure interviewed by journalists from La Deux.
Tense climate
Also questioned in the report, Magali Berdah, boss of the influencer agency Shauna Events, threatened the production of reprisals, without resorting to her lawyers for the moment. The businesswoman nevertheless agreed to participate in the recording of the famous end interview in the red armchairs on Tuesday. According to our information, she was able to watch the subject of France 2 on this occasion, accompanied by a lawyer and an executive from Banijay, owner of her company. The latter took notes while watching it, according to a witness to the scene which took place in the former studio of “Loft Story”, in Plaine Saint-Denis.
This tense climate prompted the channel to bring forward the broadcast of this investigation. Announced on Friday, this rescheduling on Sunday should allow him to protect himself from any legal action. It also protects her from a possible preventive media counter-offensive by Magali Berdah, who is to hold a press conference on cyberbullying on Monday, September 12.
