The Canal + group “continues to discuss” with Cyril Hanouna to keep it

Is Cyril Hanouna going up the auctions after the chain stop and his program “Touche pas à mon poste”? In any case, the Canal + group “continues to discuss” with Cyril Hanouna to stay within it, assured its president on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, Maxime Saada, while other negotiations are currently taking place with the M6 ​​group .

“The discussions are not closed,” said Saada, questioned on this point during a hearing before the Senate Culture Commission. “It is possible, the press has echoed it, which he joins another audiovisual group, but the discussions are still underway,” he continued, without stretching more.

C8 sealed by fines

The chain which employs Cyril Hanouna, C8, will stop on February 28, 2025 because the Arcom, the audiovisual regulator, has not renewed its authorization to exploit a frequency of TNT (digital land television).

Property of the Canal +group, in the giron of the conservative billionaire Vincent Bolloré, C8 has accumulated 7.6 million euros fine due to the slippages of Hanouna, its star host, at the controls of the program “Touche pas à à à à my post ”(TPMP).

M6 journalists standing

Tuesday, January 28, 2025, the companies of journalists (SDJ) of M6 and RTL, which belong to the M6 ​​group, indicated that the latter planned to recruit this controversial host for “entertainment, apolitical programs, mainly relating to the news of media ”.

According to the SDJs, this project is rejected by the majority of journalists in the M6 ​​group, which includes the M6 ​​and W9 television channels and RTL radio. On January 24, 2025, one of M6’s stars, Karine Le Marchand, even denounced the possible arrival of Hanouna within the group. “If I come, I’m going,” she thundered in the daily Liberation.

The host himself advanced, in early January 2025, a “serious track”: to switch to CSTAR, another channel of the Canal +group, for “a TPMP talk show from 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm”.

In recent months, he has also mentioned the project to broadcast programs on the Internet. In addition to television, he officiates on the radio on Europe 1, also in the lap of Mr. Bolloré.
