France 2 has chosen new journalists to replace Julian Bugier and Laurent Delahousse during their vacation. Julien Arnaud had already been named to be Anne-Sophie Lapix's joker.
Replacing a colleague at work during their vacation: TV is no exception, especially television news. They are called jokers. And there is change. France 2 has decided to appoint new in-house journalists to these positions.
On the 1 p.m. news provided by Julian Bugier, the usual joker was Nathanaël de Rincquesen until now. He will have to give up his place to Maya Lauqué, revealed The Parisian. The 45-year-old Basque journalist is at the helm of “Télématin” from Friday to Sunday with Damien Thévenot. She had already presented the France 2 newspapers for a weekend at the start of the year. She will be at the helm of the 1 p.m. news from this Friday, November 8.
On the weekend, on the 8 p.m. news, a new face will appear to replace Laurent Delahousse when he is absent. Sonia Chironi was chosen. The 45-year-old Breton journalist is in charge of a 2-hour news slot every evening on France Info (TNT channel 27). Sonia Chironi has already been called to the France 2 news this summer.
This fall, France 2 had already announced the name of Anne-Sophie Lapix's new joker in the person of Julien Arnaud, at the helm of “Télématin” during the week with Flavie Flamant. Julien Arnaud, who held these positions for many years at TF1, was preferred to Karine Baste.
For its part, TF1 recently chose Jean-Baptiste Boursier, presenter of the LCI morning show, to replace Gilles Bouleau at 8 p.m. The journalist made his first replacements during the All Saints' Day holidays. On the weekend, Audrey Crespo-Mara remains Anne-Claire Coudray's joker.
