Olivier Truchot of Big Mouths apologized this Tuesday, November 12, 2024 after claiming, wrongly, that the elected official from Doubs who published a video where he made anti-Semitic remarks was a deputy of La France Insoumise – even though he is neither a deputy , nor a member of LFI. But another fake news targeting the left also spread in the media the same day…
False information widely relayed in the French media
Many media outlets claimed yesterday that Sébastien Delogu, deputy of the NUPES-LFI group, had insulted former minister Aurore Bergé during a session at the National Assembly. The same evening, Cyril Hanouna and his columnists were outraged in Don't touch my post. But this evening, Wednesday November 13, the host of TPMP on C8 wanted to rectify the situation: “There was information that had been relayed in particular here in Don't touch my postlike what Sébastien Delogu would have said to Aurore Bergé, uh… He would have called him 'big trash'. We have the report of the Assembly and Mr. Sébastien Delogu is said to have said: 'You will end up in the dustbin of History! The trash!''“.
Sébastien Delogu denounces, Cyril Hanouna apologizes
Cyril Hanouna continued by publicly apologizing to the deputy for the seventh constituency of Bouches-du-Rhône: “It's true that we ask – even if we don't agree with him on a lot of things… There, we are still obliged to say to ourselves that it's not the same and to make our mea culpa, like the other journalists who took up this information because he would not have… Finally, he n’a not. The report is clear. He didn't call her 'trash'. (…) We were wrong, and when we were wrong, we said so. (…) Otherwise, we no longer have any credibility. So Sébastien Delogu, we are sorry for having said that and for having relayed this information yesterday, which was false information which had been relayed by a lot of media“. On the social network X, Sébastien Delogu denounced this fake news: “The media spent the afternoon accusing me of insults, without even bothering to check. The report is finally out: their manipulation is exposed, their propaganda collapses under the weight of the truth“.
