Editorial: Le Monde

• The commission of inquiry into the neutrality, functioning, and financing of public broadcasting has been critically evaluated.
• The commission was created by the Union of Rights for the Republic (UDR), an ally of the Rassemblement National.
• Its tone during the hearings and manipulation of social media have been subject to criticism.
• Rassemblement National has expressed its desire to privatize the public media body if they come to power.
• This attack on public broadcasting has been built around a theory that the public media are partially biased.

Conclusion: The Commission of Inquiry is mainly being used to push an ideological agenda, rather than reforming public media.
