What’s new for the 1 p.m. of France 2 with Julian Bugier?

“We are very happy with the trajectory that the 1 p.m. has taken over the past three years, the results are very positive” recalls Julian Bugier. “We managed to establish columns, sections, a mechanism in the 1 p.m. news that our viewers really support“says the one who does not intend to stop there:”I like to always be on the move, that’s the way I work. There are discussions planned to establish new meetings next year, new sections, new ways of telling information, with this idea also of being very service-oriented.“. Obviously, it is still too early to talk about it, but he wants to make it clear that the pace of relocations “will undoubtedly accelerate because it is also a guarantee of trust from our public, it is to meet them on the ground. And then for me, it’s an exercise that I really like. I find that we benefit a lot from the fluidity and spontaneity that we can bring to the newspaper” he likes to mention. Thus, viewers could find new sections at the start of the school year and above all have even more opportunities to see the journalist close to home.
